A simple way to run programs sequentially is to use a .BAT file
together with the "start /w" command. I don't remember the syntax to
start a batch job in SPLUS, but you write something like this to run a
sequence of them:
start /w splus job1
start /w splus job2
start /w splus job3
...
Put these lines in a file named something like "runjobs.bat", then run
it.
This assumes that your jobs cause SPLUS to exit at the end. The batch
file will wait for that to happen before it starts the next one.
