Yes, this was a problem - but I haven't recently tried to execute UV11 and 
cron. UV11 has a different shared memory model - inherited from UD - in 
comparison to older releases. 

A quick test shows that phantom processes are getting their own shared memory 
segment under UV11. 

So - at first glance - it appears no longer to be an issue from UV11 onwards. 

Dave Church's uvcron.c program was the solution in the past/now to help for 
those still waiting to user cron or similar scheduling tool...with uv.

You should use uvsh rather than uv and you also need to consider multiple cron 
jobs running as the same user at the same time as Universe does not like this 
or never used to at least.

You can certainly launch a UV process from a unix script.
e.g.

#!/usr/bin/bash
cd /$path_to_uv_account/$ACCOUNTNAME
$UVHOME/bin/uv "phantom PROGRAMNAME" >> /somedir/log1.txt $UVHOME/bin/uv "LIST 
SOMEFILE DICTITEM1 DICTITEM2" >> /somedir/log2.txt

You can call this from cron too if required.

Cheers
Peter

Wouldn't a simple startup script suffice - like in /etc/init.d/rc*x*.d 
(depending on Linux)?
