Hi Kevin,

Windows does allow for command pipelining - the symbol "|" is used to chain
commands. Since my processes run in a command line process, I can chain
processes if needed. No need to save to a file. The only requirement is that
the program that runs supports input/output file redirection. 

Cheers,
Pieter

Is there really no way to pipeline processes on Windows, like with a pipe on
Unix?
