And the longer still answer (now that I've noticed "access to stdin and
stdout") is to use an image with OSProcess loaded, and then you can
get access as follows:

  me := ThisOSProcess thisOSProcess.
  stdin := me stdIn. "acts like a Stream"
  stdout := me stdOut.
  stderr := me stdErr.
  stderr print: Time now; cr. "put the time of day on my stderr output"
