(I'm sorry the references aren't there, this is all I can find.) I had just started reading the group (June?) and I believe the main discussion may have been concerning borrow mode. I'm not interested in borrow mode, what I would like is the "great info on how to create a pad on another node...", that the message refers to. Can someone inform me how to do this? This is the situation I am dealing with: A process on node A starts a process (CPS) on node B. I want the node B process to be able to inform node A that it is finishing, (either from a shell script or C module). Most probably, the originating process on A is no longer running. What I would like to do is create a window back on node A. Thankyou, thankyou, thankyou! -- Shirley A.
