   I was wondering if someone could shed some light on a problem I have run
into with the OS9 F$Fork call.
   If when calling the Fork, everything works ok and the fork is done to the
process, but at some point that process comes up with an error. How do report
back to the parent what the error was.
   As an example, say you used F$Fork to run the Copy command, the Copy command
asks for and gets its parameters then tries to do the copy, but at that point
it gets an error like #216 (path name not found). The error number doesn't seem
to be passed back to the parent.
   How can you grab that error number ?
