Well Have you tried to execute those programs one by one so that you can
see which one is makeing the con: to appear?
It's so dificult to help when you doesn't have a glue what kind of
programs you are trying to run.
Do some of these programs nead input? if so have you redirected it
correctly? are you pipeing something? and if you are is it bi or mono
directional pipeing? So many questions and only few answers. ;)
