Hrm. So, let me see if I understand. You want a program to lock everything so you can mess around with nmh internals with non-nmh programs. Okay, I can understand that. But then you say (in another message) that you want nmh programs to not deadlock under our hypothetical nmhlock program ... so you want to run nmh programs under nmhlock? Or you want the option to handle both nmh and non-nmh programs under nmhlock? I am just trying to understand what you want. However ... I think this might be beyond what I'm personally willing to implement. Of course anyone else is free to write nmhlock (or whatever you want to call it). --Ken _______________________________________________ Nmh-workers mailing list [email protected] https://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/nmh-workers
