It depends. As I explained, your launcher is the parent process of the started programs, so it is waiting for the end of its children. When all its children have terminated, the parent will end. Otherwise, it means than some watched file descriptor (a process, a pipe) or a window is already opened in your program. -- Benoit Minisini ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by the Moblin Your Move Developer's challenge Build the coolest Linux based applications with Moblin SDK & win great prizes Grand prize is a trip for two to an Open Source event anywhere in the world http://moblin-contest.org/redirect.php?banner_id=100&url=/ _______________________________________________ Gambas-user mailing list Gambas-user@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/gambas-user
