Fellow Amigans:

     I would like some advice/examples on how to set up several functions
in a source code file as independent processes (using ports and messages
for inter-process communications.)  My problem can be described as follows:

main()
{
   /* brilliant code inserted here...*/
}

func_1()
{
  
}

func_2()
{

}

  I would like to set up func_1 and func_2 to run as completely independent
processes.  Also, After they are set up, is anything needed to get them to
actually start executing?  I have a project now where the tasks are being
set up correctly (even show up with TaskX), but they seem to never actually
execute.  Any suggestions?

   Phil
