Thanks! But ... I learned how to use g_spawn_async, I programmed
everything and then, when I tried compiling it, I realized that these
functions are declared only in glib2*. Unfortunately, I'm using Gtk1.2
because I need to be compatible with as many computers as possible. Do I
have any alternatives to g_spawn_async* in 1.2?

Thanks,

Andrej
