-.SH NAME
-Tcl_DetachPids, Tcl_ReapDetachedProcs \- manage child processes in background
-.SH SYNOPSIS
-.nf
-\fB#include <tcl.h>\fR
-.sp
-\fBTcl_DetachPids\fR(\fInumPids, pidPtr\fR)
-.sp
-\fBTcl_ReapDetachedProcs\fR()
-.SH ARGUMENTS
-.AS int *statusPtr
-.AP int numPids in
-Number of process ids contained in the array pointed to by \fIpidPtr\fR.
-.AP int *pidPtr in
-Address of array containing \fInumPids\fR process ids.

-.SH DESCRIPTION
-.PP
-\fBTcl_DetachPids\fR and \fBTcl_ReapDetachedProcs\fR provide a
-mechanism for managing subprocesses that are running in background.
-These procedures are needed because the parent of a process must
-eventually invoke the \fBwaitpid\fR kernel call (or one of a few other
-similar kernel calls) to wait for the child to exit.  Until the
-parent waits for the child, the child's state cannot be completely
-reclaimed by the system.  If a parent continually creates children
-and doesn't wait on them, the system's process table will eventually
-overflow, even if all the children have exited.
-.PP
-\fBTcl_DetachPids\fR may be called to ask Tcl to take responsibility
-for one or more processes whose process ids are contained in the
-\fIpidPtr\fR array passed as argument.  The caller presumably
-has started these processes running in background and doesn't
-want to have to deal with them again.
-.PP
-\fBTcl_ReapDetachedProcs\fR invokes the \fBwaitpid\fR kernel call
-on each of the background processes so that its state can be cleaned
-up if it has exited.  If the process hasn't exited yet,
-\fBTcl_ReapDetachedProcs\fR doesn't wait for it to exit;  it will check again
-the next time it is invoked.
-Tcl automatically calls \fBTcl_ReapDetachedProcs\fR each time the
-\fBexec\fR command is executed, so in most cases it isn't necessary
-for any code outside of Tcl to invoke \fBTcl_ReapDetachedProcs\fR.
-However, if you call \fBTcl_DetachPids\fR in situations where the
-\fBexec\fR command may never get executed, you may wish to call
-\fBTcl_ReapDetachedProcs\fR from time to time so that background
-processes can be cleaned up.
