WAIT(1) 						      General Commands Manual							   WAIT(1)

NAME
wait - await completion of process
SYNOPSIS
wait
DESCRIPTION
Wait until all processes started with & have completed, and report on abnormal terminations. Because the wait(2) system call must be executed in the parent process, the Shell itself executes wait, without creating a new process.
SEE ALSO
sh(1)
BUGS
Not all the processes of a 3- or more-stage pipeline are children of the Shell, and thus can't be waited for. WAIT(1)
