- the process finishes. Specifying this parameter also allows you to redirect the
- standard input and/or output of the process being launched by calling

- flush an unnecessary console for the processes which don't create any windows
- anyhow) but a @c wxEXEC_NOHIDE flag can be used to prevent this from
- happening, i.e. with this flag the child process window will be shown normally.
- Under Unix the flag @c wxEXEC_MAKE_GROUP_LEADER may be used to ensure
- that the new process is a group leader (this will create a new session if
- needed). Calling wxKill() passing wxKILL_CHILDREN will
- kill this process as well as all of its children (except those which have

+ wxKILL_ACCESS_DENIED, // permission denied
