[cplay-dev] Fork Blocking

[SHRIZZA]

After performing a shell command (with '!') while a song is playing,  
I must ^C (to stop the song) then hit return to return to the app.

As a test, I performed a shell command near the end of a playing  
song. I hit return before the song ended and, as I suspected, just  
after the song ended, I was immediately returned to the app.

Is this the expected behavior? If not (or if so but looking for a  
solution), should we look into using the standard library's  
commands.getoutput() or do you think there's a work-around with the  
current os.fork() and os._exit()?
