Just want to reacquaint everyone about the existence of Jim Rogers' "Ada
Binding to Pipes" (http://www.adapower.com/reuse/pipes.html). You can issue
a command and all the output is caught and easily read back in for
post-processing.

It's incredibly easy to use, effective and reliable, and I use it almost
exclusively whenever I need to issue commands from within an Ada program.
Works great, highly, highly recommended.  (Thanks Jim!)
