screen capture software/animated gifs

[Peter Haworth]

Bob,
I know about your solution but it addresses a different problem.  I don't
have a blocking situation, I have a repeat loop in which I can issue wait
commands whenever I choose so spawning off another process isn't necessary.
 Plus the original problem has to do with why screen capture software
prevents the gif from animating.
