Executing this block of text:

win -e cmd1 args ...
win -e cmd2 args ...
win -e cmd3 args ...
win -e cmd4 args ...

opens up *one* acme window with
the first of the `win' commands.
Once you `Del' that win, the second
one appears, and so forth. But the
behaviour I would expect is that I
get four separate `win' windows, each
running the separate commands.
I'm trying to automate the opening of
the `win' windows through a separate
script, so it would be nice to know
whether there is some way to achieve
what I'd expect.


Thanks,
ak

Put an '&' on the end of each line?

OK, yeah. I lost myself in the complexities
of empty-headed programming.


Thanks much,
