You could use a single handle onto the process. If the handle is already non-null, then it's running (or you've not yet checked its termination condition). If null, you've either never run it, or you've seen it terminate already and reset the handle to null. On the other hand, though this would technically work, it's unlikely to provide the probable required functionality of loading the latest log state. For this, a simple window with a simple edit control on it would be better.
