check the code for FpSystem and you might find that it has its own exit codes in 
the 0 thru 255 range... to keep the two processes from interfering with each 
other, one takes the lower and the other's are incremented by 256... i've seen 
this used in numerous places... i have even implemented it in years past... the 
hardest part is remembering which set of 256 belongs to what set of code...
