+The objects of this class are used in conjunction with the
\helpref{wxExecute}{wxexecute} function. When a wxProcess object is passed to
wxExecute(), its \helpref{OnTerminate()}{wxprocessonterminate} virtual method
is called when the process terminates. This allows the program to be
processed (and call \helpref{Detach()}{wxprocessdetach} for others).
wxProcess also supports IO redirection of the child process. For this, you have
-to call its \helpref{Redirect}{wxprocessredirect} method before passing it to
-\helpref{wxExecute}{wxexecute}. If the child process was launched successfully,

\helpref{GetErrorStream}{wxprocessgeterrorstream} can then be used to retrieve
the streams corresponding to the child process standard output, input and
error output respectively.
notification about the process termination. However, it might happen that the
parent object is destroyed before the external process is terminated (e.g. a
window from which this external process was launched is closed by the user)

{\bf should call Detach()} instead. After the wxProcess object is detached
from its parent, no notification events will be sent to the parent and the
object will delete itself upon reception of the process termination
If it is NULL, you have not turned on the redirection.
