Hola:

I am calling a ps previewer from a C program to display some data.  The 
previewer displays the information and then exits.  What i want to do is
to wait some minutes before the program finished.  Any ideas?

Another question.  Can i execute a shell command from a ps program?

Thanks,
johnsho

PS:
	I am using AIX and ghostview.
