15 * Using .in, .out, .err:
16 * - Specify 0 for no redirections (child inherits stdin, stdout,
17 * stderr from parent).
18 * - Specify -1 to have a pipe allocated as follows:
19 * .in: returns the writable pipe end; parent writes to it,
20 * the readable pipe end becomes child's stdin
21 * .out, .err: returns the readable pipe end; parent reads from
22 * it, the writable pipe end becomes child's stdout/stderr
23 * The caller of start_command() must close the returned FDs
24 * after it has completed reading from/writing to it!
25 * - Specify > 0 to set a channel to a particular FD as follows:
26 * .in: a readable FD, becomes child's stdin
27 * .out: a writable FD, becomes child's stdout/stderr
28 * .err: a writable FD, becomes child's stderr
29 * The specified FD is closed by start_command(), even in case
30 * of errors!
