## The purpose
smartipc makes it easy to spawn tasks into subprocesses without loosing control over what those processes do.
You can transparently call functions and expect returned data using promises.

## Usage

**Master.ts:**

```javascript
import * as smartipc from 'smartipc'
smartipc.setBasePathArg(__dirname) // if you want to avoid typings out full paths every time

let myThread = new smartipc.Thread('worker')
myThread.send('someMessageOrObject').then(messageResponse => {
    console.log(messageResponse)
})
```

**worker.ts**

```javascript

```
