Request for comments: small class to create, manage and interactwith forks

[apeiros]

Hi there

I created a small class to deal with forks, mainly creating, managing and communicating with forks. But since forks/forking is a bit of a new topic to me, I'd be happy to get comments on the following bit of code: http://gist.github.com/329397/ (version while posting this: http://gist.github.com/329397/89206b9d1df916b31d818010f13fdb78102c2788 )

Thanks for your feedback

regards
Stefan, aka apeiros
