I am newbie in UNIX, so please excuse me for the stupid question.
Here is a problem:
I created ksh script where the part of the functionality include an opening of a second session with another shell process "runrep"(runrep is a custom reporting shell designed by Advent Geneva).
When I run my script as it is now, as soon as it rich the line where it suppose to load a second shell - it just stuck at this point. In the output window I can see a child shell prompt. Looks like the second thread is created and the original thread is just waiting for the the child thread to complete.
Here is my questions:
1) How can I prevent my script from opening a new thread, so it would re-use the current thread and would be able to interact with the new shell?
2) If second thread is necessarily, how can I do command exchange between two shell threads?
Thank you for your help.
