You've left out a lot of details. You need to register a singal handler for
SIGCHLD. If you want to communitate with the child process, you have to setup
pipes etc.

It's better to use one of g_spawn_async or g_spawn_async_with_pipes or
g_spawn_command_line_async. They take care of a lot of the details for you.

So. I'm think that in my code I can use standart unix non named pipes, if 
I create it,ofcouse I'm must use GLib functions to get platform independency,
but I'm don't need for it ;-)
