The Sunview programmers guide mentions that we should never use the system call 'system' since it calls 'signal' and 'wait' and these system calls are prohibited in sunview since the notifier takes care of them. By the same token, are we not allowed to call 'popen' and 'pclose' since these too exec the sh and execute a wait. Any info is appreciated.
