gollark: So my highly advanced service manager is now even more highly advanced and can load service-spec TOML files.
gollark: ```rustuse std::process::Command;fn main() { loop { println!("Starting"); let mut child = Command::new("/bin/env") .arg("python3") .arg("test.py") .spawn() .unwrap(); child.wait().unwrap(); }}```
gollark: Okay, done, it has no error handling whatsoever.
gollark: Highly advanced apiotechnology, yes.
