Yes, thought of that first.
If I do...
`foo bar &`;
...Tk freezes till xterm is closed.
If I do...
system("foo", "bar", "&");
...then xterm rejects the & as bad cli option.
If I put the xterm call in foo.sh and do...
`~/foo.sh &`;
...Tk still freezes till xterm is closed.
If I put the xterm call in foo.sh and do...
system("~/foo.sh", "&");
...nothing apears to happen. I get no xterm.
But if I call ~/foo.sh on the cli, thin I do
get the xterm. So the script foo.sh is okay.
I tried all those things before coming here.
I am a little stumped.

#!/bin/sh
xterm +u8 -fn ... &
in ~/foo.sh and then did system '~/foo.sh'?
