🚀 go-pugleaf

I am trying to message a text window in the parent from a child:

 [ctlText setText: "GEORGE"];
 [ctlScrollView display];
 if(fork())
 {
..
 }
 else
 { 
 objc_msgSend(kText,@selector(setText:),"FREDS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!");
 [ctlText setText: "FREDS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"];
 [ctlScrollView display];
 ...
 }

GEORGE appears in the ctlText but FREDS!!!! doesn't. I have tried
both [xxx xxx: xxx] and objc_msgSend(...,...,..) ways of
doing it but, even though I know the child is started (it printf's also)
it can't get to the parent's Text object. I also get the process
exited....Window server death message in the shell I start it in.
This only kills the child. The rest of the app is o.k.
I am assuming that the child, having a different process ID,
is disconnected. Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,
Vern
