Hello,

I think it's the right list ; if not, please redirect me.
It is.
In order to launch a command from within the C programme in attachment, I use "fork
- execve - wait" trio so that parent program waits until command has finished
Building the program : cc execve.c -o execve
Program syntax : ./execve <command full path>
Example : ./execve /usr/bin/gvim
The problem :
--- if I execute "./execve /usr/bin/gvim", gvim starts after a few seconds but
without executing .vimrc, and parent program doesn't wait for gvim to end.
Output of "ps -auwx --forest" during the few wait seconds :

Output of "ps -auwx --forest" once gvim started :

lgentis 9093 1.3 0.4 75804 26700 ? Ss 16:36 0:00 gvim
We can see that gvim is not a child process of the parent program (which has
ended)
see :help -f
--- if I execute "./execve /usr/bin/vim.gtk", vim starts in text mode in the
console ; however, parent program waits till vim is closed.

--- I did the same test with gedit and audacious, and all works fine : child
program is executed and parent program waits as expected.

Best regards,
Tony.
Thanks a lot, Tony ; that was the solution ; yet gvim is launched (after
6 seconds ???), and parent program waits till gvim is closed.
Just a little thing : this child instance of gvim does not read my
.vimrc unless I ad "-u /myHome/.vimrc"
And if I add "-u /myHome/.vimrc" and do "Edition - startup setting", it
says "new file .vimrc"
