NAME
      vsig - synchronize a co-process with  the  controlling  FMLI
      application
 


SYNOPSIS
      vsig
 


DESCRIPTION
      The vsig executable sends a  SIGUSR2 signal to the  control-
      ling  FMLI process. This signal/alarm causes FMLI to execute
      the FMLI built-in command checkworld which causes all posted
      objects  with  a reread descriptor evaluating to  TRUE to be
      reread. vsig takes no arguments.
 
 EXAMPLES
      Example 1: A sample output of vsig command.
 
      The following is a segment of a shell program:
 
      echo "Sending this string to an FMLI process"
      vsig
 
      The vsig executable will flush the output buffer  before  it
      sends the SIGUSR2 signal to make sure the string is actually
      in the pipe created by the cocreate function.

NOTES
      Because vsig synchronize with FMLI, it should be used rather
      than kill to send a SIGUSR2 signal to FMLI.
