Nice idea, thanks!<br>
<br>
However, I find it highly in-elegant that the sporkee must care about<br>
stuff like this. I'd really prefer for an outside sporker to be able to<br>
pull the plug, with each process is as generic as possible. Like how the<br>
operating system of my computer handles the switching of all processes,<br>
without the different programs having to listen for a "now it's time to<br>
terminate" signal.<br>
<br>
That aside. it sounds like an idea worth pursuing if anything else fails...<br>
<br>
Thanks again for the input!<br>
