[comp.sys.amiga.tech] Looking for popen

Hello net.folks, I'm looking for some source code that I saw recently.
Where, I can't recall.

I've scanned *every* source code module on all 157MB of drive and I
can't find it.  Which means it must be on floppy, but there's no way
I'm going through all of those!!

I remember seeing something that was discussing how it was done, and
the ended the monologue by saying, this work, this won't, "Think about it!"
Basically, the code used the PIPE: device to get the job done.

I'd appreciate any help!!  I'm porting CNews to the Amiga (it's 95% done :-)
but it needs to be able to call other programs, and I'm not thrilled with
Execute().  Besides, I want it to remain as Unix-like as possible.

Thanks for any help!
