Hello again,
I'm getting responses, but after reading them I'm afraid I wasn't clear in
what I was looking for so let me re-phrase that.
My developer has a script:
#!/bin/sh
<setup environment>
<program> &
<program> &
<program> &
This overflows his termial with output so he wants to put each program in it
own xwindow. I suggested "xterm -e <command>" so now the script reads:
#!/bin/sh
<setup environment>
xterm -e <program> &
xterm -e <program> &
xterm -e <program> &
This works fine except if a program exits, the xterm window disappears. That
means if it exits with an error, you don't see the error. How can I keep the
xterm window open after the program exits? If it's even possible.

UNIX is very user friendly, It's just very particular about who it makes
friends with.
