  We have had lambda versions of process for quite some time  (I can't recall 
just when they were added).  There is a *process function which is used
when you want to set up read and write pipes, a *process-send function for
when you just want to write 
	(e.g.   ((lambda (p) (print "Hi there" p) (close p))
		 (*process-send "write joe"))
	)

 and *process-receive for when you just want to read
	(e.g.   ((lambda (p) (setq cwd (read p)) (close p))
		 (*process-receive "pwd"))
	)
