 Mjaz,

 Thanks for the reply -- rm only asks for a confirmation when used with the -i
flag ( rm -i ). In this case, it is not being used, and it is not an alias to
one that uses. That would be a good catch though!.

  The problem is when passing a child fuction pointer as argument to g_spawn.
If that argument is NULL, it works OK.

  Again, thanks for the help.

Harring.
