I have it running by creating a temporary file and use that as input for the program. Writing to stdin and reading the result from stdout does not work whatever I do. On the command line (cmd.exe) it works flawlessly, just not like that from the RB shell.

I don't like using the shell, and I don't like having to create temporary files at all, so I'll most likely will be spending time on coding the additional functionality (from thatfile.exe) myself.

Anyways, thanks again for the input.

Put everything in a shell script and use a here value:

#!/bin/sh
thatfile.exe <<XXX
<your input line 1>
<your input line 2>
...
<your input line n>
XXX

Then, run the shell script.  Since this is Windows, you may have
(well, will) to tweak the first line, but the concept still applies.
