VT100: EXT + D VT200: Find
DEFINE_KEY Function: SPAWN
Creates a subprocess under the current process. Use the
LOGOUT command to terminate the subprocess. Because a tree of
subprocesses can be established using the SPAWN function, you
must be careful when terminating any process in the tree. When a
process is terminated, all subprocesses below that point in the
tree are terminated automatically.
When you create a subprocess, you can specify an optional command
string. The command string is executed within the created
subprocess, and the subprocess terminates upon completion of
the command.
