Try the example in the manual with :c:echo as argument, just be ready for the three-fingered reset. You cannot fork() a BCPL program, period. Also, I don't think you can call Execute() from a fork()'d program but am not sure. Apart from those problems, fork() makes multitasking on the Amiga easy! -Matt
