Happy Halloween:-) Here is Robert Dodier's <robert.dodier at gmail.com> reply to me. I don't know the answer to his questions. (I'm not observing these lisp.run zombie processes for some reason.) Can anyone help?

Is it marked Z (zombie) or R or something else? (Do you just mean the lisp.run process has outlived its parent or do you mean it is a zombie in the special Unix meaning of the term?) Are you running on Windows or Unix? If the process is still running, my first guess is that end-of-file was not detected on Maxima's input socket, either because the socket is in fact still open somehow, or it was closed and Maxima failed to notice it. What is the Lisp implementation?
