The standard library Spawn api defines access to functionality for conveniently firing up subprocesses for multithreaded Mythryl programs. This functionality is built on top of Posixlib fork functionality; it encapsulates most of the work required to do a useful fork of a subprocess.
The Spawn api is implemented by the spawn package.
The Spawn api source code is in src/lib/std/src/posix/spawn.api.
