Hi Denis,

indeed a bug. Will fix it next week.

Best,
Stefan


> Hi,
> I have developed two Midas front-end programs for different hardware. The frontend_name of the first one is "FSCD_SC" (slow control) and that of the second one is "FSCD_PS" (power supply).
> 
> Each front-end program runs fine separately, but when attempting to start FSCD_SC while FSCD_PS is running, FSCD_PS is terminated and Midas indicates "Previous frontend stopped" in the window where it starts FSCD_SC.
> 
> The problem is that these two frontend names only differ in their last two characters, and Midas currently does not distinguish them properly.
