+The `environment` namespace provides all sorts of facilities to query and manipulate the environment of the current process.

+The api should be straight forward, but one oddity that needs to be pointed out is, that environment names
+are not case sensitive on windows. The key_traits class implements the proper traits depending on the current system.
+
+Additionally, environment can be lists separated by `:` or `;`; `environment::value` and
+`environment::value_view` can be used to iterate those.

+[section:introduction Introduction]
+
+Boost.process V2 is an redesign of boost.process, based on previous 
+design mistakes & improved system APIs.
+
+The major changes are
+
+* Simplified interface
+* Reliance on pidfd_open on linux
+* Full asio integration
+* Removed unreliable functionality
+* UTF8 Support
+* separate compilation
+* fd safe by default
+
+[section:simplified Simplified Interface]
+
+In process v1 one can define partial settings in the constructor of the process, 
+which has lead to a small DSL.
+
+ child c{exe="test", args+="--help", std_in < null(), env["FOO"] += "BAR"};
+
+While this looks fancy at first, it really does not scale well with more parameters.
+For process v2, the interfaces is simple: 
+
+ extern std::unordered_map<std::string, std::string> my_env;
+ extern asio::io_context ctx;
+ process proc(ctx, "./test", {"--help"}, process_io{nullptr, {}, {}}, process_environment(my_env));
+
+Every initializer adresses one logical compoent (e.g. stdio) instead of multiple ones accumulating.
+Furthermore, every process has a path and arguments, instead of a confusing mixture of cmd-style and 
+exe-args that can be randomly spread out.
+
+[endsect]
+
+[section:pidfd_open pidfd_open]
+
+Since process v1 came out, linux has moved along and added pidfd_open which allows users to get a 
+file descriptor for a process. This is much more reliable since it is not as easy to miss as a `SIGCHLD`.
+FreeBSD has a similar feature with `pdfork` which is also supported, while windows has provided `HANDLE`s 
+for processes all along.
+Unless the OS doesn't support it, process v2 will use file descriptors and handles to implement waiting 
+for processes.
+
+[endsect]
+
+[section:asio Full asio integration]
+
+Process v1 aimed to make asio optional, but synchronous IO with subprocesses usually means one is begging 
+for deadlocks.
+Since asio added pipes in boost 1.78, boost process V2 is fully asio based and uses it's pipes and 
+file-handles for the subprocess.
+
+[endsect]
+
+[section:unreliable Unreliable functionality]
+
+Certain parts of boost.process were not as reliable as they should've been. 
+
+This concerns especially the `wait_for`` and `wait_until` functions on the process.
+The latter are easy to do on windows, but posix does not provide an API for this. 
+Thus the wait_for used signals or fork, which was all but safe. 
+Since process v2 is based on asio and thus supports cancellation, 
+a wait_for can not safely be implemented with an async_wait + timeout.
+
+[endsect]
+
+[section:utf8 UTF-8]
+
+["UTF-8 or GTFO]--Vinnie Falco
+
+Instead of using ascii-APIs on windows, process V2 just assumes UTF-8 everywhere.
+
+[endsect]
+
+[section:src Separate compilation]
+
+Boost.process v2 supports separate compilation similar to other boost libraries. 
+It can be achieved by defining `BOOST_PROCESS_V2_SEPARATE_COMPILATION` and including 
+`<process/v2/src.hpp>` in a single compile unit.
+
+[endsect]
+
+[section:limit_fd Fd safe by default]
+
+While not a problem on windows (since HANDLEs get manually enabled for inheritance),
+posix systems create a problem with inheriting file handles by default.
+
+Process V2 will automatically close all non-whitelisted descriptors, 
+without needing any option to enable it.

+
+The launcher will call certain functions on the initializer if they're present, as documented below.
+The initializer are used to modify the process behaviour.
+
+[section:linux Linux Launchers]
+
+The default and pdfork launchers on linux open an internal pipe to communicate errors that occur after forking back to the parent process.
+
+This can be prevented by using the `fork_and_forget_launcher`. 
+Alternatively, the `vfork_launcher` can report errors directly back to the parent process.
+
+Thus some calls to the initializers occur after forking from the child process.
+
+```

+    {
+        // functions called from the parent process:
+
+

+[section:lifetime Lifetime]
+
+If the process handle goes out of scope, it will terminate the subprocess.
+You can prevent this, by calling `proc.detach()`; do however note that this 
+can lead to zombie processes.
+
+A process that completed will deliver an exit-code, 
+which can be obtained by calling `.exit_code` on the exited process and which is
+also returned from `.wait()`.
+
+```

+
+The normal exit-code is what the subprocess returned from `main`;

+
+```
+    process proc("/bin/totally-not-a-virus", {});

+
+```
+    process proc("/bin/bash", {});
+    proc.request_exit();
+    proc.wait();
+```
+
+`.interrupt` will send an SIGINT to the subprocess, which a subprocess might 
+interpret as a signal to shutdown.

+When using io with a subprocess, all three standard streams (stdin, stdout, stderr) get set for the child-process.
+The default setting is to inherit the parent process.
+
+This feature meant to be flexible, which is why there is little checking on the arguments assigned to one of those streams. 
+
+[section:pipe Pipe]
+
+asio pipes can be used for io. When using in process_stdio they will get

+
+`nullptr` may be used to set a given stream to be opened on the null-device (`/dev/null` on posix, `NUL` on windows). 
+This is used to ignore output or give only EOF as input.
+
+```
+    asio::io_context ctx;

+ * If the initializer is present all three will be set for the subprocess.
+ * By default they will inherit the stdio handles from the parent process. 
+ * This means that this will forward stdio to the subprocess:
+ * 
+ * @code {.cpp}
+ * asio::io_context ctx;
+ * v2::process proc(ctx, "/bin/bash", {}, v2::process_stdio{});
+ * @endcode
+ *

+ * in later version of C++.
+ * 
+ * * @code {.cpp}
+ * asio::io_context ctx;
+ * /// C++17
+ * v2::process proc17(ctx, "/bin/bash", {}, v2::process_stdio{.stderr=nullptr});
+ * /// C++11 & C++14
+ * v2::process proc17(ctx, "/bin/bash", {}, v2::process_stdio{ {}, {}, nullptr});

+ * @endcode
+ * 
+ * Valid initializers for any stdio are:
+ * 
+ *  - `std::nullptr_t` assigning a null-device
+ *  - `FILE*` any open file, including `stdin`, `stdout` and `stderr`
+ *  - a filesystem::path, which will open a readable or writable depending on the direction of the stream
+ *  - `native_handle` any native file handle (`HANDLE` on windows) or file descriptor (`int` on posix)
+ *  - any io-object with a .native_handle() function that is comptaiblie with the above. E.g. a asio::ip::tcp::socket
+ *  - an asio::basic_writeable_pipe for stdin or asio::basic_readable_pipe for stderr/stdout.
