simontanious processes

-----------------------------------

i know there's a fork command to make the process go on in the background.. but i always wondered, how do people do the falling text, and make it so that more than one will be done at one time..

you can fork multiple processes

process a
loop
put "a"
end loop
end a

process b
loop
put "b"
end loop
end b

fork a
fork b


or (much better way) you have a single procedure that keeps track of all the letters
