There's another alternative:

but I am not sure if it can be used programatically.

@smeijer From what I've read, it may break windows support. Do you have any experience working with pm2 on windows machine? We don't need much, e.g. things like startup scripts support are not required. Just an external process management utility.

@apendua, I don't have any experience with it. But I can play around somewhere in January? I'm quite busy a.t.m., so unfortunately I cannot manage to check on it at short notice.

I can arrange some time in third week of January. Then I can also check on the other Windows related things I came across in the develop branch. Would that be helpful?

@smeijer No worries. By that time (the third week of January) I should be done with all refactoring stuff and it will be very helpful if you could do some testing on windows. Thanks for being ready to help!
