Hi,
	I had a similar problem with spawn.  I ended up using system to do what
I needed.  I read a post from DJ answering a similar question and best I
can figure I did not understand the documentation on how to spawn.  It's
a wee little bit terse.  If you go to the mail archives you'll find dj's
reply to spawn and a couple of examples on how to use it.

		Regards Ian.
