Hi list,

I'd like to fix bug 4770092, and I believe that this is possible on Windows 2000 and above using Job objects - I have fixed a similar bug previously in STLplus 3. I notice that JDK 6 ceased support for Windows 98 and ME, which simplifies the work as the Job concept is applicable to all supported Windows versions. I have read the guide at http://openjdk.java.net/contribute/ and so I would like to ask if anyone has any comments to make before I produce a patch.

Thanks,
Alistair Low
