I've modified the MicroEMACS that came with the Mark Williams C compiler to
read standard input (e.g., you can put it at the end of the pipe and then
view/edit the stuff that came out the pipe).  Is there any way to re-connect
the console to standard input so that a program (which itself used standard
input) run from within the editor via system() will operate correctly?

In UNIX this is done by:
	tty = open("/dev/tty", 0);
	close(0);
	dup(tty);
	system("whatever");	/* "whatever" now has access to proper stdin */

I've tried a similar technique using the ST's "con:" device in place of
/dev/tty but to no avail.  Can anyone offer a solution?
