	I guess I was premature, or it was late at night, but the 
redirecting /dev/null did not work after all.  I tried EXEC but it just 
started a runaway process or something and I had to log-out to get it to 
quit.  I'll try it again and write down my results this time.  If it helps, 
I'm using gambas-1.9.20-4 for gambas itself, 1.9.19 for all the other parts 
from linex.org with Debian Sarge.

	Or, is just not possible to run two gambas2 processes?

I really do appreciate your help.

K-R.
