 <p>Bashbot offers the option to recover from broken connections (blocked). Therefore you can provide a function named <code>bashbotBlockRecover()</code> in <code>mycommands.sh</code>, the function is called every time when a broken connection is detected.</p>
 <p>Possible actions are: Check if network is working, change IP-Address or simply wait some time. See <code>mycommnds.sh.dist</code> for an example.</p>
