Wish started (or tried to) the mz. Top(1) displays the following: 92723 me 1 120 0 22368K 4104K RUN 42:41 99.02% wish8.4 94850 me 1 -8 0 0K 0K START 0:17 4.06% mz The relevant `ps -axl' output is: 1042 92723 12017 286 131 0 22368 4096 - R+ p5 64:12,98 wish8.4 .. 1042 94850 92723 3 -8 0 0 0 - RE+ p5 0:17,34 [mz] The mz process (94850) is not reacting to `kill -9'... mz is started by the script via Tcl's `open' function with the "|mz ...." as the argument. Why would it get stuck like this? This is on amd64 running 6.0-STABLE from Dec 12... Thanks, -mi
