Subject: PINE 4.33 and the web links

Hi,

I discovered strange behavior for the PINE 4.33, when I'm trying to
open some http:// locations. Everything is OK except a fact that, when
I'm closing the PINE the browser will be closed automatically too. But
I would like to have it opened, even if I'm close the PINE.

There is some way to bypass this "malfunction"?

Regards,
Murphy

That is how Unix works. When you fork, the new proces will be daughter of
the old, unless it is "disowned" by the mother. I guess you could write a
script which invokes the browser and then disowns it, and let pine start
that script instead of the browser.
