I am looking for a fork() function on OS9 with works the same way as fork()
on any UNIX system works. This means when you call fork() a copy of your
process is created. In the old proces, fork() returns the process ID of the new
process. In the new process, fork() returns zero.

As far as I know, the way I create child processes in OS9 is not POSIX
compatible.
Is there perhaps a POSIX compatible release of OS9 planned?
