<waitforexit>

[This is preliminary documentation and subject to change.]

Waits for a given process on the local computer to exit.

When used in combination with the <exec> task, it allows processed to be spawned for a certain duration or task, and then wait until the process is finished before continueing.

When the process identified by pid is no longer running, then the outcome is considered successful.
