It works with bins for me, but not with URLs:

    Process proc("http://s11n/");

creating process
I/O error: No such file or directory

i assume it's the same problem as the IOManager example not being able 
to find http handler.

i'd like to add funcs to do env ${var} expansion on strings. e.g.:

  std::string s = myenv.parseVars( inputstring );

i've got the code for it, just need to plug it in to the tree. With that 
support we can do things like: open_file( "${HOME}/.myconf" ).

In eshell, before an input command is passed off to a client eshell does 
var and alias expansion on it, plus expansions provided by wordexp (man 
3).

See ya!
