I need to chain one program to another, loading the second program over top of the first. Manx does this beautifully, but Lattice doens't seem to be able to do it at all. system() and the fork routines all start up new processes, and that's no good for what I want to do. Any help would be greatly appreciated. This is the only problem holding me back from switching to Lattice. -- Mike Oliphant UUCP: alberta!herald!telepro!oliphant Internet: oliphant@telepro.uucp FidoNet: (1:140/91) - ZMH only * * Call TelePro, the development system for DIALOG Professional * * Phone: +1 306 249 2352 300/1200/2400/9600/14400 baud HST * FidoNet: (1:140/90) *
