Introduction
The procreate library provides a simple but powerful api for process creation, with a thin, cross-platform wrapper around Open4.background.
Ara Howard’s Open4 library does the heavy lifting on POSIX systems, and a compatible Open4 implementation is included for windows use.
The primary documentation is for the Process.create method.
TODO
-
Some useful tests.
-
Perhaps use separate platform gems so linux can depend on open4 gem, and windows on windows api.
