Instead of downloading, recompiling, and installing lowdown; then building and installing a program that execs the downloaded lowdown; why don't you cut out the first step and call through to the C API installed with the lowdown port?

Sorry Kristaps I didn't see this because I was not previous subscribed to the list. Thanks for pointing me in this direction, it does look like the optimal approach. At my current point in The C Programming Language book the example still looks like Greek to me (I'm not up to structs or pointers) but one day...
Thanks!
