hmm. I like this, very objective.
But I prefer to put command and args as arguments (very much like current
system method). So,

sys = System.new("ls", arg1, arg2,...)
sys.run

I could pause sys,

sys.stop

#Since, sys is an object, I could add/modify other things.. while it's on
standby :-)

# or maybe query it like

sys.is_running?

Then start it again,

sys.start

Lastly, I could also kill sys,

sys.kill

ok, I admit I'm sleepy. I might still be dreaming :-)
