System, as in (system "ls -l").

If you want a stream for reading the output (or for sending input),
you might try using named pipes and i/o redirection.  There may
also be some code in AKCL for processes, sockets, etc.  Or you
can use some code I wrote and recently posted to the KCL mailing
list (···@cli.com).  I can make the latter avail for ftp.
