This process a file to produce a .pdf document. I need to retain control in the spawned window until the pdflatex process has completed, and then return to the cygwin process. How can I retain control in the cygstart spawned window until the spawned process has completed (synchronous processing)? -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
