Wrote functions for spawning, killing, etc. processes (Windows only: Unix support not needed ATM).
Focused on console programs.

That's a whole lot of winapi I just dumped on allmodex.bas. I think it would be much better to stick this and
other OS-specific stuff in one file per OS. Some other time.

Fix MP3/WAV import getting stuck in a loop (bug 826) by writing spawn_and_wait and using it.

This only makes a difference on Windows; elsewhere it just calls SHELL jsut as before.

That is a good idea. Maybe like os_windows.bas os_linux.bas os_mac.bas 
sort of like backends (even if they don't really have to be backends in 
the same sense that gfx_ and music_ are)

[Bug 826] Latest nightly's mp3/wav to ogg import goes bonkers

http://rpg.hamsterrepublic.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=826

--- Comment #8 from Ralph Versteegen <teeemcee <at> gmail.com> 2010-11-01 09:22:40 PDT ---
It turns out both gfx_sdl and gfx_directx are affected.

My lord, under Windows, music and sound effects import were bug ridden messes
(nightlies and Ypsiliform+2 seem to behave the same, aside from the quoting
issue I already fixed). There were about 3 bugs preventing MP3 importing from
working (some of the time), input goes bonkers half the time on many machines,
deleting OGGs and MP3s didn't work at all for me, deleting doesn't work from an
rpgdir,  and bad error reporting (only "import failed" reported regardless of
cause, even if known).

I believe that I've now fixed all of the three bugs mentioned in my bug report
(I overlooked the one about not being able to delete OGG files) but I'd really
like some testing to confirm that it's fixed for everyone, and that I haven't
broken something else.

There's still the issue of the bad error reporting and not being able to delete
from an rpgdir, which is a separate bug.

Although the fix for bug 826 is large and complicated (r3959-3961;
previous SHELL quoting change superseded), I think it should
definitely be included; it can only be better than the current state
of importing (is this what you were delaying Ypsiliform+3 for?). I'd
just like to have people try out nightlies for a few days first.

Okay. I have no problem with waiting a few more days for Ypsiliform+3
