<BR><FONT SIZE=2>> the actual </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>> PID, so that the (non-existant) process 16384 gets killed </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>> too, whenever </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>> I wanna kill -9 `cat BFVIETNAM.pid`... is that a confirmed bug?</FONT>
</P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2>uhh... the pid file format is actually like this:</FONT>
</P>
<P> <FONT SIZE=2>pid</FONT>
<BR> <FONT SIZE=2>tid</FONT>
</P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2>your cat-int is going to get the tid not the pid.</FONT>
</P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2>btw, was there agreement that we should stick the .pid file in the overlay path if it is set? bf1942 doesn't seem to have this (at least via grep)</FONT></P>
