Thanks for your and everyone else's responses. Since ruby has a #waitpid 
on both windows and linux, I think I'm going to hack up something that 
has a use like this:

$ wait_for.rb "something that describes the other process, like a unique 
command line parameter, so I can lookup its pid and wait on it" then do 
this other command

Thanks!
