bool GProcess::Run	(	char *	Exe,
		char *	Args,
		char *	Dir,
		bool	Wait,
		GStream *	In = 0,
		GStream *	Out = 0,
		int	Priority = 0
	)

Starts a new process.

Parameters:

Exe	The path to the executable to run
Args	The arguments to pass to the program
Dir	The current directory to start the program in
Wait	If true, calling Run will block until the process exits, else Run will exit after starting the process. The parameters In and Out are only used if Wait=true
In	A stream to supply input to the process. Only used if Wait=true.
Out	A stream to capture output from the process. Only used if Wait=true.
Priority	The priority to run the process at. -2 = idle -1 = low 0 = normal 1 = high 2 = realtime(ish)
