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.
