want to run a function in background
consider the given prg.

main() {
.....

function1(); /* to write into a file or log */

printf(" ");
.....
}

when the control reaches function1(), it should get executed in the
background.At the same time main's printf(" ") statement should also get executed.i.e function1() should be independent of the main after it is called.Both should run simultaneously.


Also the background process should not return to main and handle other requests in background (e.g waiting for the msg Q to get filled up).

evolvotron_mutate

EVOLVOTRON_MUTATE(1)						    Evolvotron						      EVOLVOTRON_MUTATE(1)

NAME

       evolvotron_mutate - Render an evolvotron function tree to an image.

SYNOPSIS

       evolvotron_mutate < function_in.xml > function_out.xml

       evolvotron_mutate -g > function_out.xml

DESCRIPTION

       evolvotron_mutate either mutates an existing image function (saved to an XML file), or (with the -g option) creates a new image function.

       The mutation parameters and function weightings are the same as used by evolvotron in its default reset state.

       See the evolvotron user manual (accessible from the evolvotron application's Help menu) for more information on image functions.

COMMANDLINE OPTIONS

       -g   Specifies that no function should be read from standard input.  The output function is created at random.

EXAMPLES

       evolvotron_mutate -g | tee function0.xml | evolvotron_render function0.ppm

       evolvtron_mutate < function0.xml > function1.xml
