You can do this with the full version of Accuterm which costs $139, Accuterm
lite which costs $59 does not have this feature.  This feature is now
support by a terminal emulator called HotVT, at least in Wyse60 modes, which
is available for $39, if cost is a consideration.  Control is also better to
if you want the host process to wait until the local process is finished.
My host program launches the local process and then waits until it receives
a return code.  HotVT returns '...' when the local program is terminated.
The '...' is a user defined parameter that is passed to it.  Accuterm is
supposed to wait for the process to terminate, but I found that it wasn't.

LOOP
INPUT ANS,3
IF ANS = '...' THEN EXIT
REPEAT

Björn,
    I know you can do it from AccuTerm, I don't know of a way to do it 
from wIntergrate.
