Dear Maintainer,
bash online help command "help coproc"
says:
. Exit Status:
. Returns the exit status of COMMAND.
this implies predicting the future...
the man page says
. Since the coprocess is created as an
. asynchronous .command, the coproc command
. always returns success. The return status of a
. coprocess is the exit status of command.
I believe that to be correct, but don't understand the
last sentence
