in reply to To Fork or not to Fork

That is not enough information.

How much communication has to go on between the two?
(does one script talk to the other)

If it does not, i'd just keep exec'ing the 2nd script.

    Yeah, sorry about scimping on the details, truthfully I just wasn't sure what to include. To answer your question basically all the communication is just passing arguments and flags which occur once at the beginning of the second script, but after that, as far as I can tell as of now, no communcation is needed.
