Greetings,
  I've a program I want to run as a child process, activating it periodically
to have it do some work for me.  All this works fine.  When I am done with it,
however, I'd like to call it one more time, telling it to clean up and quit.
This also works fine *except* that when it quits, my process never gets
reactivated.
  I know that this can be done, as Qedit will do exactly what I'm looking for
right down to getting itself reactivated when the program quits, but all my
RTFMing has not yet allowed me to dope out what, perzactly, I should do to make
this happen.  Any advice (even advice on the subject) gladly accepted.

TIA,
Ted

"I think you're begging the question," said Haydock, "and I can see looming
ahead one of those terrible exercises in probability where six men have
white hats and six men have black hats and you have to work it out by
mathematics how likely it is that the hats will get mixed up and in what
proportion. If you start thinking about things like that, you would go round
the bend. Let me assure you of that!"
