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, -- Laurence Withers, lwithers AT lwithers DOT demon DOT co DOT uk http://www.lwithers.demon.co.uk/
