<BR>
<P><FONT SIZE=2>Hi,</FONT>
</P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2>from a script I want to start an external program (win32). This should</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>be done in a way that is equivalent to typing the name and options at</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>the dos prompt. The program must not be influenced by exiting the</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>script.</FONT>
</P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2>Do I have to use system(), spawnv() or spawnve() or something else? </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>Any traps?</FONT>
</P>
