but most platforms have a mechanism to interact with external processes
(AE, BMsg, COM, etc.). it would be very powerful to create an abstraction
regrouping them, very much like (File)Stream abstracts over distinct file
systems... And squeak would gain so much by being able to talk to others
productively :-)
