Hi I'm running FreeBSD 2.2 Stable and am wondering if this is a bug I should report. Perhaps someone would like to try and duplicate it? You will need "elm" and the editor "ee" on your system, as well as a telnet client on a PC or a Mac. Telnet to FBSD as an ordinary user. Set up "ee" as your default editor in .profile enter elm, and start to edit a new mail message. Your screen editor should be "ee". Do not leave the editor in the normal way. Instead, just rudely quit the telnet session. (eg: File->Quit). Go to the console and run "top". top should show the "ee" process still active, using up 95% of CPU time. Now go to your ethernet hub. It should show a whole heap of activity - much more than normal. I presume this shouldn't happen on a Unix system - all processes should be children of the logged in user, and thus should get KILL'ed when the user exits, no matter how they exit. Eddie.
