Thanks to everyone who replied to this and apologies for taking so long
to say it. I had to go away at short notice...

I actually think that simple non-blocking I/O would suffice with a
proper popen.
I have no problem with the cost of starting (and maintaining) a new
process to do I/O.
The real problem is that you can't make the pipe from popen non-blocking
on Win32.
I might look into a module that would allow non-blocking pipes.... and a
silent background process
(ie no "dos box") on Win32...
Meanwhile I am having fun with Lanes....
Regards and thanks,
Bob
