Yes, it is a simple change, but where is pipe/popen2 used? Should we
take these usages into account or just rest on the position that lists
are deprecated and get rid of them? If we get rid of them should we use
a cell array or or something else? In this case it might be better to
just use two return values as there are only two elements in the lists.
There is no point doing the work, if John doesn't like the solution and
won't accept the code, so better that he makes some statement...

Cheers
