Klaus, you might also consider using open process. This can be
useful (depending on the shell command you're using) because you can

I'm pretty sure the 512 size at least is only supported under Leopard.
Not sure about the 256 size. I'm running Leopard, but this app will
have to run on 10.3 and up. So maybe we should simply stick with the
