this may be a tupid question and it might be that i am an idiot,
but...

i want to spawn a process

cmd='ls -l'
spawn,cmd

i am actually doing this with a GET command and it sometimes hangs

if i try

spawn,cmd,/nowait

it tells me

Keyword NOWAIT not allowed in call to: SPAWN

but it says it is in the help?

any ideas?

thanks

russ
