//! Execution of and interaction with external processes and pipelines.
//!
//! The entry points to the crate are the [`Popen`] struct and the [`Exec`]
//! builder. `Popen` is the interface to a running child process, inspired by
//! Python's [`subprocess.Popen`]. `Exec` provides a builder-pattern API with
//! convenient methods for streaming and capturing of output, as well as
//! combining `Popen` instances into pipelines.
//!
//! Compared to `std::process`, the module follows the following
//! additional features:
//!
//! * The *communicate* [family of methods] for deadlock-free capturing of
//! subprocess output/error, while simultaneously feeding data to its
//! standard input. Capturing supports optional timeout and read size
//! limit.
//!
//! * Connecting multiple commands into OS-level [pipelines].
//!
//! * Flexible [redirection options], such as connecting standard
//! streams to arbitary [open files], or [merging] output streams
//! like shell's `2>&1` and `1>&2` operators.
//!
//! * Non-blocking and timeout methods to wait on the process:
//! [`poll`], [`wait`], and [`wait_timeout`].
//!
//! # Examples
//!
//! Communicate with a process and optionally terminate it:
//!
//! ```
//! # use subprocess::*;
//! # fn dummy() -> Result<()> {
//! let mut p = Popen::create(&["ps", "x"], PopenConfig {
//! stdout: Redirection::Pipe, ..Default::default()
//! })?;
//!
//! // Obtain the output from the standard streams.
//! let (out, err) = p.communicate(None)?;
//!
//! if let Some(exit_status) = p.poll() {
//! // the process has finished
//! } else {
//! // it is still running, terminate it
//! p.terminate()?;
//! }
//! # Ok(())
//! # }
//! ```
//!
//! Use the [`Exec`] builder to execute a pipeline of commands and
//! capture the output:
//!
//! ```no_run
//! # use subprocess::*;
//! # fn dummy() -> Result<()> {
//! let dir_checksum = {
//! Exec::shell("find . -type f") | Exec::cmd("sort") | Exec::cmd("sha1sum")
//! }.capture()?.stdout_str();
//! # Ok(())
//! # }
//! ```
