<p dir="ltr">OK,<br>
Yes we were not talking on same thing. <br>
So forget my idea, it does not solve your problem. <br>
However when you say " only processes that can send you messages are yourself and <br>
your parent, until one of you passes the pid on to some <br>
other process. " I do not understand. <br>
Any process can list all running process at any time and potentially send messages to them.<br>
You mean those pids have to be hidden, while existing in process registry ?</p>
