I agree. I was looking into how you start a child process in C++ recently and I was surprised and not at all surprised to find that the answer is still fork and execve. Ridiculous.



Wouldn't that be OS specific anyway? Like, Windows has no concept of forking processes but instead it uses the CreateProcess function.
