I'm doing several forks (up to 1000) and the child processes are returning data via a pipe. If the parent catches an error and I have the program exit, will all the children exit also? Or will they be waiting to pipe, in which case I should kill all the children? "I should kill all the children"..... when did programming become so violent? -- -Josh -- gentoo-user at gentoo.org mailing list _______________________________________________ TCLUG Mailing List - Minneapolis/St. Paul, Minnesota Help beta test TCLUG's potential new home: http://plone.mn-linux.org Got pictures for TCLUG?
