Forking is a unix thing... What happens when a process comes to a fork in
the road, it splits and continues in two directions.
You can't execute a batch file, you need the command intrepreter to handle
that one, so the previous suggestion should be accurate. If you're on NT or
2000, maybe cmd.exe would be more apropriate.
If you don't like this comment, go to the kitchen, open the silverware
drawer, grab a fork and and see how far along you get with it on your
keyboard.
