Use 'nice' to run it. Alter the script so that the fop execution looks
like:
nice /Applications/fop-0.94/fop -fo $foo -pdf ../pdf_files/$state.pdf
You can check the man page for nice for more info.

At any rate, I have an XSLT stylesheet that produces 50+ separate fo
documents. I then run the shell script below to batch produce the pdf
documents:
#!/bin/sh
for foo in *.fo
do
state=`basename $foo .fo`
/Applications/fop-0.94/fop -fo $foo -pdf ../pdf_files/$state.pdf
done
When I run this script on my Mac (OS X 10.4.11, java version "1.5.0_13"
fop-0.94), org.apache.fop.cli.main takes control of the desktop, stopping
whatever it is I am doing for about 5 seconds. I gain control again for about
5 seconds until fop pumps out another pdf document. I basically have to step
away from the computer for the 8 minutes that the batch process takes. Adding
& and wait to the main line of the script does not seem to work:
/Applications/fop-0.94/fop -fo $foo -pdf ../pdf_files/$state.pdf &
wait
done
The first script above on Ubuntu linux runs in the background without
interrupting other running process.
Any simple solutions?
