I ran the REPL, a GS program, and newLSIP edit. No problems.



Thanks for the update!

Hi Lutz,



Thanks for the release...



A remark though... process does not work anymore.. :-)

(Linux slackware 11.0)



> (process "xclock")

4812

> !ps -p4812

  PID TTY          TIME CMD

>





Where do I look in the C code for the change? Because the p_process function did not change...





PS1: this is strange...

(process "newlisp") does work, but I cant get back to the original ROOT

newlisp when I quit the second one with Ctrl-D. The Root is a ghost now (no defunc btw!)



I think its a TTY/Terminal setting issue...Im lookig at it...









Regards,

Norman.

specify the full path name for the app to start with process:


~> newlisp
newLISP v.9.2.4 on BSD, execute 'newlisp -h' for more info.

I just punched myself with the  "RTFM" chapter...!





PS: Signal handler works fine, I lost the SIGVTALRM with the 'true option ;-)
