Subject: Asynchronous command call

I am trying to use a ruby script to start a apache tomcat server like
this:

dir = "C:\\program\\apache-tomcat-5.5.20\\bin"
`#{dir}\\shutdown.bat` rescue nil
`#{dir}\\startup.bat`


This works, except that the program never exits. I would like the
startup call to be made Asynchronous so that the script would just call
startup and then exit.

Ive tried calling startup in a different thread, with the same result.
