Got you. So the correct term would be 'multiprocess'. I always forget that
UNIX considers processes to be seperate to threads. BeOS does things
slightly differently. We have the notion of 'teams'. A thread belongs to a
'team'. All threads are effectively light weight processes. However, and I
forget the exact reason, a team is not an exact equivilence to a UNIX
process.
This has nothing to do with unix <-> BeOS. For example, Solaris is definitely Unix and also uses the concept of light weight processes. Different OS'es simply use different process models.
