Expand description

Work handed to a process that may outlive workon.

These go through std::process::Command, not procpilot: since procpilot 0.9.0, dropping a SpawnedProcess kills the child, which would stop a background deletion the moment its handle went out of scope.

Functionsยง

remove_dir_in_background
Starts rm -rf <dir> and returns without waiting, so the user gets their shell back while the OS finishes the deletion. If workon exits first, the deletion carries on.
