Hi Andrew, I don;t pretend to understand a fraction of what your program does but I've passed input and grabbed output from standard command line programs from LC by
- building a file with the commnds to be executed - executing a shell command for the program that redirects stdin to my command file and stdout to a text file - opening and reading the redirected stdout file to get the results.
