From 0295b153f4ee0506f1b23f5b941cfd28ee7201db Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "Joachim Wuttke (l)" Date: Wed, 20 Mar 2019 18:25:52 +0100 Subject: Help: describe the command pipeline of execute_process more explicitly When reading the doc page on execute_process, I was mislead by the words "in parallel". They convinced at once that the processes are run independently of each other, so that I did not even bother to read further. The rewording, and not least the insertion of a paragraph break, should prevent such oversight. --- Help/command/execute_process.rst | 4 +++- 1 file changed, 3 insertions(+), 1 deletion(-) diff --git a/Help/command/execute_process.rst b/Help/command/execute_process.rst index 9209f95..2d71352 100644 --- a/Help/command/execute_process.rst +++ b/Help/command/execute_process.rst @@ -22,7 +22,9 @@ Execute one or more child processes.
