Thank you.
OH! Sorry! I thought this is the only news-group. I'll ask further questions in
the guile-user news group.
@Dave The Systemcall pipe isn't in the posix-module. Maybe it's not required.
So there are changes it works just with the posix-module.
@Chris Thank you for library. I didn't know that. Looks really useful for me.

Tobias might also want to consider the run-with-pipe procedure, and the
run-concurrently+ procedure (with tail-call-program), as provided by
guile-lib ( http://www.nongnu.org/guile-lib/doc/ref/os.process/ ).
Tobias looks as if he has posted to the wrong newsgroup. Follow ups
should I think go to guile-user (but I have not set them).
