       I have been considering the possibility of closing down
all file descripters other than 0,1, and 2 when invoking a process
via popen().  Does anyone know of any reason not to make this
change?  Does anything depend on this "feature"?

                               Cheers,
                                       Doug  <DPK@BRL>
