CExecProg class
A small MFC class that wraps the WindowsCreateProcess() API.
This list of strange arguments needed for the CreateProcess() is
long, so to do it right you always need to look up the documentation.
This wrapper class promotes simple use of the CreateProcess()
function - with simple constructors and default argument values.
It also supports waiting for process termination.
