Arthur Navi 98e5428b83 I think this is a better example

I _think_ that maybe if you have a tuple of 1, it gets "unwrapped" in
some way to be just a singleton - or at least I was encountering a
bug along those lines...

(('/mnt/tmp', 'mount /mnt/tmp'))[0] == '/'
^ this is where my big was occuring, I think

It also could've been an issue with the printing - no idea.
Changing from a tuple to a list seems to be better

Remount Checker

This is a very simple program to check if a particular folder is a mounted folder or not. If it's not, run the mount command - simple!

`mount_points`

You need a mount_points.py file. The example_mount_points.py provides an example format (it's a touple - first element is the folder to check, second element is the command to run).

`mount` command

You'll need to make sure that the cronuser (can't think of the exact correct term - the user that cron pretends(?) to be when runnign the command??) is able to actually run the mount command. There are 2 simple options that I can see:

Use sudo crontab -e and make root use run the command, or
Make your user able to run the mount command. I'm sorry I don't know 100%, but I think that means adding user to the mount options in fstab.

crontab

The idea is you should run this is crontab every X minutes - 5 seems to work fine for me. An example crontab is:

*/5 * * * * /usr/bin/python /home/<USER>/code/remount_checker/remount.py

Replace (and the rest) with the location of remount
