WTF? It works, but where's that in the documentation?

*stamps feet and requests, nay DEMANDS a 'search' feature for Blitzmax docs*

Wouldn't help much as it's not documented. ;o)

T'is in the wiki though.

@GFK, the compiled CHM version of the helpfile has search and alphabetical index. http://www.blitzmax.com/Community/posts.php?topic=55806

Did the CreateProcess() work? I know the freeprocess module is in the standard distribution, but just haven't looked at it much. Does it work on all platforms?
