[Techtalk] probably a stupid scripting question

[Miriam English]

Thanks Kathryn.
The description of login and init was interesting, especially in the 
light of using wait to catch the process that inherited the pid when the 
exec'ed process ends.
Weird, but neat.

Now I can see why it would be used.
