Why do you use forkIO here? It's not necessary. The process will run in
background on its own. ?
It looks to me like this code requires a forkIO, not in the writing to inp,
but rather in the reading of out and err. Otherwise, those buffers may
fill up and your process will hang...
It seems to be as you say. Trying for a single-threaded solution to this
problem always locked up the program, until I found someone's code
snippet online using forkIO and extrapolated from that.
Sincerely,
