This patch makes surf reload its pages when it receives a SIGHUP signal. This makes it easier for shell scripts to trigger surf to reload. I'm aware of using xdotool to trigger ctrl+r keypresses for reloading [1] but I wasn't able to get that to work in a general way. I'm sending this here in case surf maintainers and users would like to include this in core - if not I will submit it to the wiki.

surf - simple webkit-based browser
==================================
surf is a simple Web browser based on WebKit/GTK+.
Requirements
------------
In order to build surf you need GTK+ and Webkit/GTK+ header files.
In order to use the functionality of the url-bar, also install dmenu[0].
Installation
------------
Edit config.mk to match your local setup (surf is installed into
the /usr/local namespace by default).
Afterwards enter the following command to build and install surf (if
necessary as root):
make clean install
Running surf
------------
run
surf [URI]
See the manpage for further options.
Running surf in tabbed
----------------------
For running surf in tabbed[1] there is a script included in the distribution,
which is run like this:
surf-open.sh [URI]
Further invocations of the script will run surf with the specified URI in this
instance of tabbed.
