We could just expose `open-process' from (ice-9 popen) to start with.
AFAIK, that's what Mark wants.
Here is an example use of `open-process' to wrap `html2text':
(use-modules (ice-9 popen))
(define open-process (@@ (ice-9 popen) open-process))
(define (html2text string)
(with-error-to-file "/dev/null"
(lambda ()
(call-with-values (lambda () (open-process OPEN_BOTH
"html2text"))
(lambda (read-port write-port pid)
(display string write-port)
(close-port write-port)
(let ((str (read-string read-port)))
(close-port read-port)
(waitpid pid)
str))))))
IIUC to achieve this goal, I need to make `open-process' public
in `ice-9 popen` module and add documentation for it?
Is that correct?
