DISCLAIMER: I don't have the GS/OS reference, so if the information I'm
            looking for is in that, please tell me and I'll go and try to
            find it.

I am trying to write a program launcher, using Orca/C 1.1.  I got it to the
point that it would run the other program, but when the second program quits
the machine crashes.  I am launching it with a QuitGS call, flags=0, and
the pathname set to the full pathname of the next program.  I have shut down
all the tools except for SANE, Tool Locator, Memory Manager, and the Loader,
because Orca/C apprently doesn't let you shut those down from the program (they
are started up and shut down automagically)

Any help would be muchly appreciated. d:-)
