Anton, According to msdn http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa365782%28v=vs.85%29.aspx the pipe handles should be created non-inheritable in order to detect EOF. Looking at fcl-process/src/win/pipes.inc, pipes are created inheritable... The msdn sample code to redirect input and output also creates 2 pipes (http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms682499%28v=vs.85%29.aspx).

I thought that the clos- ing of the write end of the StdIn pipe handle should cause a EOF to be 'seen' at the read end, but this does not happen. Maybe these's some explicit way to signal end of input?
