    _______________________________________________________

Details:

if launch is called on an NSTask, after terminate has been called, it will
silently fail, without raising an exception. On osx an exception is raised.


>From cocoa docs

- (void)launch
Launches the task represented by the receiver. Raises an
NSInvalidArgumentException if the launch path has not been set or is invalid
or if it fails to create a process.

I wasn't able to find NSTask in the openstep specification on the gnustep.org
site.
