Walizer writes: Just a curiosity question: are there any future plans to incorporate a functional fork() into djgpp? Maybe in 2.0? It seems to me the necessary features could be incorporated into go32. I would attempt it myself, but I know my skills and time are not up to the task. Perhaps we have different ideas of what a "functional fork()" is. On UNIX, fork() creates a copy of the running process. Since DOS is not a multitasking OS, I don't see how this could be done for DJGPP. Dave
