I think that a program that must run in the background is broken. Yet *prohibiting* auto-backgrounding imposes an even more heavy toll on scripts where <process 1> requires <process 2> to be running and ready: you *must* run a supervisor, or else run a lame-not-quite-a- supervisor, just to do what would have been trivially done in a few more lines of C.
Can you please elaborate or reformulate ? I don't understand what you mean. I don't think there's *ever* a case where it is necessary for the original process to die, so what is the kind of script you are thinking of ? Could you give a small example ? (We should take this to the supervision list, this is becoming seriously off-topic for dng.) -- Laurent _______________________________________________ Dng mailing list Dng@lists.dyne.org https://mailinglists.dyne.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/dng
