Pending the arrival of the (off-line) manuals, could someone give short answers to the following questions: 1) How can I tell is a Mac session is running: I'd like to be able to wait until the session has got started (so I want to avoid busy-waiting if possible). 2) What is the ui_select trick which allows me to combine waiting for activity on a normal A/UX file descriptor as well as waiting for Macintosh events? 3) Will the world die if I arrange to fork then exec from an XCMD? -- William Roberts ARPA: liam@cs.qmw.ac.uk Queen Mary & Westfield College UUCP: liam@qmw-cs.UUCP Mile End Road AppleLink: UK0087 LONDON, E1 4NS, UK Tel: 071-975 5250 (Fax: 081-980 6533)
