Message-ID: <4816@kuhub.cc.ukans.edu> Date: 7 Jul 89 22:30:00 GMT Lines: 13 Geoff, I have one more feature I'd like... It seems like every time I have to kill a SKIM job, I have some problem of one kind or another... What I'd like to see is for NEWS to declare an exit handler using $DCLEXH when a skim is started, so that I can issue a $FORCEX to the skim job to tell it to clean up and exit, closing files properly. Would this be easy to do? ---------------------------------+-------------------------------------------- Tim Russell, Computer Operator | Internet: russell@zeus.unl.edu Campus Computing | Bitnet: russell@unoma1 University of Nebraska at Omaha | UUCP: uunet!zeus.unl.edu!russell ---------------------------------+--------------------------------------------
