Hi,

A program I am writing runs external programs through the "system"
command. However, I need to access their stdin, stdout and stderr
streams. I have looked at the 'redir' sources, but they just redirect
through file handles. I need more control than this: I need to
immediately have access to stdout and stderr, and stdin will be handled
by my own keyboard handler. Is this possible?

Well, thanks for your time + help, and bye for now,
