invokes a process, such as <b>ls</b>, <b>cp</b>, or <b>mv</b>,

that process is called a child process. It is possible for any

process to define a variable. These variables will not be made

variables are exported and, therefore, all shell utilities can

read the value of a shell variable. However, programs cannot

change the value of a shell variable. In general, executables

<p><font face="Times">GNO/ME wasn't really designed with the
|
||
|
|
intention of making EVERY program you currently run work under
|
||
|
|
GNO/ME; that task would have been impossible. Our main goal was
|
||
|
|
to provide a UNIX-based multitasking environment; that we have
|
||
|
|
done. We made sure as many existing applications as we had time
|
||
|
|
to track and debug worked with GNO/ME. The current list of
|
||
|
|
compatible and non-compatible applications can be found in the
|
||
|
|
file "RELEASE.NOTES" on the GNO/ME disk.</font></p>

|
<p><font face="Times">However, due to the sheer number of
|
||
|
|
applications and authors, there are some programs that just plain
|
||
|
|
don't work; and some that mostly work, except for annoyances such
|
||
|
|
as two cursors appearing, or keyboard characters getting 'lost'.
|
||
|
|
The problem here is that some programs use their own text drivers
|
||
|
|
(since TextTools output was very slow at one time); since GNO/ME
|
||
|
|
doesn't know about these custom drivers, it goes on buffering
|
||
|
|
keyboard characters and displaying the cursor. There is a way,
|
||
|
|
however, to tell GNO/ME about these programs that break GNO/ME's
|
||
|
|
rules.</font></p>

|
files, to allow distinction between programs that are GNO/ME

|
compliant and those that are not. Setting the auxType of an
|
||
|
|
application to $DC00 disables the interrupt driven keyboard
|
||
|
|
buffering and turns off the GNO/ME cursor. Desktop programs use
|
||
|
|
the GNO/ME keyboard I/O via the Event Manager, and thus should <i>not</i>
|
||
|
|
have their auxType changed.</font></p>

of a problem, but for older applications that are unlikely to
