I'm only running a single instance of Drivewire.  No need to launch
multiple sessions:

pi        3451  2.4  7.0 307776 53840 ?        Sl   Nov22  14:09 java
-XX:+UseConcMarkSweepGC -jar DW4UI.jar --backup --noui

Here's the current sessions I have:

pi at cocopi3wifi.kdomain.org:~/.mame $ mountDWfile.sh

No Drivewire Instance and/or DRIVE # provided.  Usage:
/home/pi/.mame/mountDWfile.sh <DW instance> <DRIVE #>

Current list of Drivewire Instances:

     0    "TCP 1 - EMU"
     1    "TCP 2 - EMU"
     2    "TCP 3 - EMU"
     3    "CoCo 2 on ttyUSB0"
     4    "CoCo 3 on ttyUSB1"
     5    "CoCo3FPGA on ttyUSB2"
     6    "CoCo3-On-A-Chip on ttyUSB3"

I would agree that if I needed to spawn multiple processes, I would not use
it.

Thanks - I would certainly appreciate that!
