Hi, Actually, the reason why I cannot use this solution is that on Windows, when I have a large enough image, I can build it, I can save it even, but I cannot reopen it. Hence my only way around it is to not close it :). Cheers, Doru On 15 Nov 2012, at 14:23, Camillo Bruni <camillobruni@gmail.com> wrote:

Hi,
I have the following requirement: - I start an image from the command line with an initial script - I want to wait until the Smalltalk script finishes until I can continue with the command line script - But, I do not want to stop the image
I can achieve the first two points by having the image quit at the end. Is there a way in which I can somehow continue the command line execution without stopping the image?
I don't know the details but if you save+quit your image and immediately open it again it will continue where you where before. so the following is the closest thing I can come up with
./vm.sh Pharo.image st doStuffAndSave.st; ./vm.sh Pharo.image & # relaunch and fork to background ./doStuffAfter.sh
but yeah, that violates your not-image-stop requirement :)
