Hi folks, I would like to use an external program to process some text, and the <process-stream> word seems to be the right choice, but I can't get it working. I wrote this, for example:
"sort" ascii <process-stream> [ "a\nc\nb\n" write flush 1000 read ] with-stream ...hoping that it would leave a string of sorted lines on the top of the stack. But it fails with a broken-pipe error. In other languages, I'd flush and close the input descriptor before trying to read from the output descriptor, and I suspect that's what's wrong here, but don't know how to do that on a duplex stream. Any suggestions?
