I took a big break the last weeks, but it was worth it. I hope I finished work at the GUI for sure this time, but fortunately I have to face the next problem already. pdftk does not print any output to stderr / stdout (console screen output) when using the burst command. And it seems like the ReadFile API which I use to pull the output out of my
pipe (a construct that "pipes" output from the console to the GUI) blocks until some thing is read, even if the created process has terminated... So if I don't want my program to wait for the next processor generation I'll have to find another way to handle the burst command. Anyway, I'll keep you up to date.
