Hi Stephen, I've updated the win version of the xtra yesterday, the new version has callback functions for catching stdout and stderr output during execution (see new readme and demo.exe/demo.dir). But there is still no interactive access to stdin, I have to think about this for a while, I will let you know if I find out how this can be implemented.
