Tom, Yes this works for my problem*your solution is quick and
eloquent*thanks*
I would be interested in a reference for PID monitoring for cases where
we have more that one *identical* spawned process to consider*
Thanks,
Steve

Do you really need to track the PID?
while (1) {
# restart the ksh script
