Dustin -

This sounds to me like an environment issue. On Win NT, 98, Unix bash
and c-shell, this is the default behavior I have seen.

I say it may be an environment issue because I recall from working with
the Bourne shell that exec'd processes are killed when the parent
process exits, while processes exec'd in C shell are not.
