I think you should probably run the arexx port in a child process. That's what we do with TCL: for any given TCLish program, we run two copies. One is used interactively and the other is purely a batch processor. To get information back to the main one we have it send a message to the batch guy. Much better than pretending to be a Mac program and busy-waiting. Interaction between asynchronous command processors is a complex subject, but by and large any given O/S level thread should only have one control flow. Particularly is the alternative is busy-waiting. > Lastly, besides "real" pipes, are there still significant features > that people want which aren't in SKsh? Do you have "here documents" yet? "setmap" is a poor name, since that's an Amiga program to set the keyboard mapping. -- Peter da Silva. `-_-' <peter@sugar.hackercorp.com>.
