[Ql-Users] Daughter Job?

2008-01-21 Thread Malcolm Lear
Hi

A rather odd request, but does anyone know how an SBasic program could 
determine if
its running as job 0 or as an executed daughter job?

Cheers
Malcolm

Print JOB$(-1) will give "SBASIC" in a daugther job and "" in job 0.

Hope this helps

Unless you rename it "" (blank).

The job ID of SBASIC will not be 0.
