How can i know a asynchronous process (started by my elisp) is done?
----
detail:
i want to write a elisp program so that it runs a shell command to
render a pov-ray file. I want the process to run in the background,
but when it is done, open the generated image.
My problem is that i don't know how to code that knows when a
asynchronous process is done.
Thanks in advance.
