: /* Call PROGRAM synchronously in separate process.
163 The remaining arguments are optional.
164 The program's input comes from file INFILE (nil means `/dev/null').
165 Insert output in BUFFER before point; t means current buffer; nil for BUFFER
166 means discard it; 0 means discard and don't wait; and `(:file FILE)', where
167 FILE is a file name string, means that it should be written to that file.
168 BUFFER can also have the form (REAL-BUFFER STDERR-FILE); in that case,
169 REAL-BUFFER says what to do with standard output, as above,
170 while STDERR-FILE says what to do with standard error in the child.
171 STDERR-FILE may be nil (discard standard error output),
172 t (mix it with ordinary output), or a file name string.
174 Fourth arg DISPLAY non-nil means redisplay buffer as output is inserted.
175 Remaining arguments are strings passed as command arguments to PROGRAM.
177 If executable PROGRAM can't be found as an executable, `call-process'
178 signals a Lisp error. `call-process' reports errors in execution of
179 the program only through its return and output.
181 If BUFFER is 0, `call-process' returns immediately with value nil.
182 Otherwise it waits for PROGRAM to terminate
183 and returns a numeric exit status or a signal description string.
184 If you quit, the process is killed with SIGINT, or SIGKILL if you quit again.
