Hi,
How can I yield a Task until an externally spawned process has finished?
I.e. I want to use something similar to https://dlang.org/phobos/std_process.html in order to execute a shell command from my program, and I want to pass execution on to different tasks while waiting.
How do I accomplish this?

I wrote a thread based wrapper a while ago:
https://gist.github.com/s-ludwig/8434299
In theory the thread could be replaced by waiting on the process/pipe
handles in an event loop compatible way, but that is event loop/OS
specific and in my case the overhead of creating a thread was negligible.
