I think that what Porter is suggesting is a intermediate process that is the parent of the final process - a child to generate a grandchild you might say. Then when your initial process (the grandparent?) is killed you still have a process to report on the grandchild

xtmanagecha
XtManageChild() XtManageChild()
Name
XtManageChild - bring a widget under its parent's geometry management.
Synopsis
void XtManageChild(w)
Widget w;
Inputs
w Specifies the child widget to be managed; Must be of class RectObj or any subclass thereof.
Description
XtManageChild() brings a child widget under the geometry management of its parent. All widgets (except shell widgets) must be managed in
order to be visible. Managing a widget will generally make it visible, unless its XtNmappedWhenManaged resource is False.
XtManageChild() constructs a WidgetList of length one and calls XtManageChildren(). See XtManageChildren() for more information.
Usage
Calls to XtCreateWidget() and XtManageChild() can be combined into a single call to XtCreateManagedWidget() or XtVaCreateManagedWidget().
If you are going to manage multiple children of the same managed and realized parent, it is more efficient to place those children widget
into an array and call XtManageChildren() just once, as this results in only a single call to the parent's change_managed() method. If you
are creating widgets before the widget tree has been realized, however, managing them one at a time is fine.
A widget can be unmanaged by calling XtUnmanageChild().
