      Hi! Björn,              On 29/11/2014 2:30 PM, you wrote:               PQ>> biggest advantage is the treatment of semaphores: having both a        PQ>> dedicated directory, and the ability to add custom-designed        BF> semaphores.               BF> Indeed.

It depends on what the logic flow in the BAT dictates. Do you       envisage pre-loading the BAT and then call it using the flag?               PQ>> P.S.

All that goes away       in a straightforward Linux environment.              Cheers,       Paul.              --- Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 5.1; rv:31.0) Gecko/20100101 Thunderbird/31.2.0        * Origin: Paul's Puppy 4.2.1 multiuser vBox - M'boro, Qld, OZ (3:640/1384)    |
