hello,
I want to use wait program in my rc.shutdown script
I do not want computer to shutdown before a process
completes its work (the process is the process of the
proxy server called squid)
I tried the wait command from tcsh
wait pidnumber 
but it gave me 
too many arguments 
error message...
then I tried it with sh
but then it gave me
wait: No such job: pidnumber
error message (I gave a valid pidnumber)
what am I doing wrong?
thanks!
