hi,
I'm just curious about two things. In Unix (perhaps Win/Mac) what exactly
is 'lks'? The numerical engine?
And secondly, does any one else find that lks leaves lots of zombie
processes around:
11486 jleach 0 0 0 0 0 Z 0 0.0 0.0 0:00 lks
I have one zombie lks for every 'Server' I have used. For example each
new work sheet I open has 'Server n+1' in the title bar, where n was the
number of the last server. I don't seem to remember Maple 6.0 doing this.
I am using Maple 6.01, on Linux. It's not a big problem since a zombie
takes up no system resources really. Has anyone else noticed this under
Linux w/ Maple 6.01.
Thanks,
J.

As far as I know, it is the Maple engine, not only the numerical thing,
but the whole. I have not encountered that on the Mac platform, though; I
only know it from a Unix platform, and I am rather sure that it means the
same on Linux.

As far as I know from Maple V.5 on a Unix platform (SUN), this lks is not
a zombie process, but it is a new active Maple kernel associated with the
new worksheet that you have opened. Apparently you are starting Maple with
the pertinent command line option, or the script that does the starting
for you contains this option. You may change this and have a common kernel
for all worksheets, so you would only have one lks process showing up -
both ways have their pros and cons. How to change that should be explained
in some READ_ME (or readme, ...) file
