    Charley,

    Presumably you didn't actually use those calls, because the function has a capital P  in Process, the second argument should be a string (e.g. "") rather than nil, and the log file name is the 6th argument, not the 5th (the 5th is an exit handler).

    If I use:

    procedure(MyDisplayStuff(cid data) printf("STUFF: %L\n" data))
    procedure(MyExitHandler(cid status) printf("EXITED: %L\n" status))
    ipcBeginProcess("/bin/ls" "" 'MyDisplayStuff 'MyDisplayStuff 'MyExitHandler "log")

    Then I get nothing in the terminal, but I do get a file called log. If the file "log" is not writable for some reason, I get this in the xterm:

      Server: could not open/create logfile log

    Is that what you mean?

    Andrew.
