[Ecls-list] run-program with :error :stream?

[Jared C. Davis]

Hi,

I'm new to ECL.  I have some questions about the ext:run-program.

According to the documentation at:

   http://ecls.sourceforge.net/new-manual/rn01re63.html

It sounds as though run-program can take :error :stream.  However, when I
try
to run:

   (ext:run-program "echo" (list "hello")
                    :input :stream
                    :output :stream
            :error :stream)

I seem to hit an error:

   Debugger received error of type: SIMPLE-ERROR
   Invalid :ERROR argument to EXT:RUN-PROGRAM:
   :STREAM

Is there some other command I should use besides ext:run-program that might
allow me to get all three stdin/out/err streams?

I'm using x86-64 Linux with the ECL 13.5.1 release from the sourceforge
project
page.  Perhaps I should use a newer version of ECL from Git?

Thanks!

Jared
