:In my opinion, this task definition is ambiguous. Traditionally (C/Unix), a forked process inherits its context from the parent process. However, the task uses this term "fork" without actually specifying anything about what should or should not be inherited. This means that calling out to the OS to run a new process could satisfy this task -- but if this were truly the case the task should be re-named. Alternatively, the task should be rewritten, to specify what is meant by "fork" and the name should be kept. --[[User:Rdm|Rdm]] 04:30, 8 February 2010 (UTC)
::Agreed. And there is already [[Execute a system command]], so IMO this task should be limited to a true "UNIX fork". [[User:Eoraptor|Eoraptor]] ([[User talk:Eoraptor|talk]]) 19:58, 14 March 2018 (UTC)
