[PD] old process still running

[Lorenz Schori]

hi ed

i had these kind of problem too with shell on macosx+linux. the issue  
was that whenever a process did exit whit a nonzero status a zombie  
pd process was left and shell claimed that the process was still  
running. the solution was to make sure that the return status of the  
executed script is zero and to [delay] the bang for a short while. as  
far as i remember i used a value below 100.
