Hey Nick (or anyone else),
What was the exact issue with Async spawning on Windows? I know it's not working but maybe we/I can come up with a work-around and/or help fix it upstream. IIRC last time I tried to enable the #ifdef'd out async code for Windows, there was some glib-async-helper.exe or something like this and when I ran it it crashed everytime, but this was with a quite recent Geany and GLIB and maybe I was mixing Geany bundled GTK+ with my own newer bundle in PATH. Maybe we just need to bundle this utility or something?
If anyone can give a little info on what the problem is and what was tried to fix it, I can probably spend some time this weekend to have (another) shot at fixing it.
P.S. This email has absolutely nothing to do with the commit its replying to except for being related to process spawning on Windows and the Geany Win32 expert might read it :)
Cheers, Matthew Brush
