Description Jonathan Marler 2020-02-09 05:59:27 UTC 
It would be helpful if the ProcessException thrown by spawnProcess also included the process name.  So instead of:

Failed to spawn new process (The system cannot find the file specified.)

This message would be more helpful:

Failed to spawn process 'SOMEPROGRAM' (The system cannot find the file specified.)
