.. especially as now I can't get it to fail (even on slicehost).. So my next trick is to try to use daemon() so I can leave it running but I can't get that to work on OSX. I know it's deprecated by launchctl command doesn't seem to work either. It actually shows the process in state 1, but the server isn't working. ps -x doesn't show anything. I know creating a daemon can be a mess.. still, daemon exists, it certainly takes the server off the terminal, and it should just work. [Why is Unix so difficult? I mean, things should "just work" but instead they just never work..] [One of my friends wrote a whole library for making daemons, it's a black art .. why? to do something so simple as run a process?] -- john skaller skal...@users.sourceforge.net ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Nokia and AT&T present the 2010 Calling All Innovators-North America contest Create new apps & games for the Nokia N8 for consumers in U.S. and Canada $10 million total in prizes - $4M cash, 500 devices, nearly $6M in marketing Develop with Nokia Qt SDK, Web Runtime, or Java and Publish to Ovi Store http://p.sf.net/sfu/nokia-dev2dev _______________________________________________ Felix-language mailing list Felix-language@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/felix-language
