SPAWN is a [[DCL]] [[Command|command]] that creates a [[Subprocess|subprocess]] of the current [[Process|process]]. Portions of the current process context are copied to the subprocess. The RESOURCE_WAIT state is required to spawn a process. Requires [[TMPMBX]] (temporary mailbox) or [[PRMMBX]] (permanent mailbox) privilege. The SPAWN command does not manage terminal characteristics. The SPAWN and [[ATTACH]] commands cannot be used if your terminal has an associated [[Mailbox|mailbox]].
