Multi-task and dos('start /b prog')

[Yann Laurant]

Hello,

I'm trying to call a program from Scilab (esay with the dos function), but
as this program is very long, I want to continue to use scilab during its
execution.
The program is launch from an interface, so I don't want to launch another
scilab session.
With MS-DOS, the command "start /b" seems to be able to launch a command
line in background (just as the & in unix system). But if I'm using this
command : dos('start /b command_line'), I am able to continue to use scilab,
but just a few second because scilab is becoming unstable and close after a
while.

Do you know if there is other solution for having some multi task in Scilab
?

Thanks for your answer.
