I use evince to view a good number of tiff files. I have written a quick little script to help me associate the tiff files with various database records. This script runs as part of larger API that runs in a very minimal xwindows system ( no desktop just twm as a window manager.) As it stands now I view the file with system("evince file.tiff"); close evince and execute the script which helps me associate and save the file. I was wondering if there is a way to for my script to open a terminal while evince is still open so I can still look at the file while I'm saving it. <br>
<br>I've tried system("evince file.tiff & gnome-teminal --geometry=50x35-0+0"); but then I don't see evince.<br><br>Any help would be greatly appreciated.<br><br>Thanks,<br><br>Richard<br>
