Subject: Re: fork() vs send() 
In-reply-to: Your message of "Sat, 19 Aug 95 12:19:13 PDT."
             &lt;9508191819.AA04139@avon.declab.usu.edu&gt; 
--------
&gt;   for obj in (object_list) {
&gt;       obj.(method)(@args);
&gt;   }
&gt; 
&gt; With:
&gt; 
&gt;   send(object_list, method, args);

Actually I was thinking 
   for obj in (object_list) {
       (| obj.(method)(@args) |);
   }
minor difference.

&gt; He did suggest that fork could be hidden behind send, but I dont think he
&gt; was suggesting it as a complete replacement for fork.

I'm hoping we'll find that a direct fork() isn't needed.
