Thanks Gregg
Ideally I need to start a new instance of the C app for each email - to make
it fit in with the existing system (major rewrite to have the C app open all
the time)
so in the loop I need to
download email:
- start a new C executable
- pipe the email into it
(and let the C exit)
get the next email...
probably all at the same time - I could do it in C but rebol just makes the
email side of it so much easier...
can't find anything in the docs about starting up other apps from rebol
