I know i'm stupid :)
Making a control invisible at runtime, visible at design time.
Controls have events , so that is the same, and by adding i code
or direct onto the form you have unique Process handle like 
Process1 and process2
Just like the Timer object in example.

dim proc1 as process
  proc1 = NEW Process() AS "proc1"
  proc1.options = array['-la','-v','/home/benoit]  ' :=)
  proc1.output = "/tmp/proc1result" ' for the > redirect
  proc1.input  = "stdin" 'for the < redirect just in case need.
  Proc1.exec = "ls -la"
  proc1.Run

public sub proc1_kill()
  print proc1.id
  if proc1.kill then
    ...
  else
    ...
  endif
end

After all you vcan say Process is a (control) object, doing something.
