What I meant was if you start up a Motif application and fork and exec a program and try to kill the motif application while the child process is still running, the motif window will still be there even if the child finishes. Try it and see. Other than making sure the child is finished (obvoiusly), is there a way to get rid of the window. Thanks, Mark Bellmore
