You can keep the forked process and later send #terminate to it.

So, this is a feature. And that's why UI process freezing, if you evaluating something lengthly. If you want to run your snippet of code in background, just wrap it with fork: [ ... do something... ] fork It works too. I guess the only way to terminate the forked process is though the Process Browser (which has some unique name for that block like "[] in Semaphore>>critical" in this case). Is there a way to refresh the Process Browser window so that it shows the new processes (it only refreshes for me if I close and open it)? > 2) Sometimes executing something freezes the UI indefinitely.
