    src/sbbs3/xtrn.cpp

    things.

    Modified Files:
    src/sbbs3/xtrn.cpp
    Log Message:
    Remove lprintf() call from child process of fork() call on *nix

    the info-level debug message "Detaching external process"... as this appears
    to be the cause of background events hanging sometimes, on Linux (at least).

    Modified Files:
    src/sbbs3/xtrn.cpp
    Log Message:
    Add node interrupt flag checking to *nix external() execution of stdio progs

    and abort the execution of the program when the node is interrupted. This should allow more cases were the node interrupt flag can be used to gracefully disconnect a user running a DOS or native (stdio) program on *nix.

    We have this functionality already in the Windows version of external()
