Module Low_level_processSource
Low-level process handling
This is low-level enough that you should probably be using Shell instead to dispatch processes.

val kill :
?is_child:bool ->
?wait_for:Core.Time_float.Span.t ->
?signal:Core.Signal.t ->
Core.Pid.t ->
unitkills a process by sending signal; waiting for wait_for and then sending a sigkill. You need to set is_child to true when killing child processes or run waitpid on them in another.
caveat: is_child:false (the default) is racy: it can both send signals to wrong processes and it can also fail to notice that the target died.

stdoutf s len and stderrf s len should only inspect the String.subo s ~len component of s.
