[shell]
except that [shell] wont compile on windows, so youll want to use [popen]. and [popen] doesnt thread, so you proably want to also install mingw and launch it via bash adding a "&" at the end of the command..

for windows, there's the "motex" library (http://www.reverberant.com/PD/index.htm) and its [system] object that can do console things quite well (don't know if it runs in its own thread, though) for quitting pd, IOhannes method to send PD the "quit" message is best.
