Message-ID: <4487@mentor.cc.purdue.edu> Date: 25 Jan 91 13:45:57 GMT Distribution: usa Organization: Purdue University Lines: 9 I don't know if this has been addressed before or if such a feature actually exist (I don't own an Amiga so I haven't played around with CLI), but can you have background tasks?? In Unix you could do a rm * & and then go on to do something else. Can you do something similiar in the CLI? If you can, can it be done (it should I think), if not why not? Sri
