- Subject: shell-like pipelines in lua
- From: Norman Ramsey <nr@...>

Lua's builtins include something like the ANSI C system() call for
executing another function. Has anybody extended this to make
it possible to build and execute pipelines? I would be especially interested
if such support used real pipelines on Unix and faked it on DOS using
whatever the approved mechanism is (temporary files?).
