Hi All,

In years of yesteryear when I was an automated Test engineer
running Pascal, I wrote a program that released several
other programs of my doing to run various tests on numerous
test beds.  My main program would watch to see if the child
process were finished and if so gather information.

Now I see with search.brave.com's AI, that Proc.exitcode
can be used to check to see it an external process is
complete:

https://search.brave.com/search?q=raku+exitcode&source=web&summary=1&conversation=ec8afd654b7e77860b84ea

    The exitcode method in Raku's Proc class returns the exit
    code of an external process, or -1 if the process has not
    yet exited

I can not see me doing anything like this in my near or distant
future, but based on my prior history, I am just danged curious
how "run" can spawn and release an external program.

Anyone know how do do this?

-T
