system () under Windows

[Guido Gonzato <ggonza@xxxxxx>]

Hello folks,

I'm facing a strange problem. The system () function doesn't appear to work 
properly under Windows: with some applications, Wjed gets suspended until the 
external program is closed. I tested this behaviour calling gsview32.exe 
(GhostView) from within Wjed; other apps don't freeze Wjed. Running programs 
with open_process () works normally, but makes my code cumbersome (no more 
than one process per buffer, remember).

Is there any way to solve this little snag?

Thanks in advance,
      Guido =8-)
