 * Tcl_OpenCommandChannel --
 *
 *	Opens an I/O channel to one or more subprocesses specified by argc and
 *	argv. The flags argument determines the disposition of the stdio
 *	handles. If the TCL_STDIN flag is set then the standard input for the
 *	first subprocess will be tied to the channel: writing to the channel
 *	will provide input to the subprocess. If TCL_STDIN is not set, then
 *	standard input for the first subprocess will be the same as this
 *	application's standard input. If TCL_STDOUT is set then standard
 *	output from the last subprocess can be read from the channel;
 *	otherwise it goes to this application's standard output. If TCL_STDERR
 *	is set, standard error output for all subprocesses is returned to the
 *	channel and results in an error when the channel is closed; otherwise
 *	it goes to this application's standard error. If TCL_ENFORCE_MODE is
 *	not set, then argc and argv can redirect the stdio handles to override
 *	TCL_STDIN, TCL_STDOUT, and TCL_STDERR; if it is set, then it is an
 *	error for argc and argv to override stdio channels for which
 *	TCL_STDIN, TCL_STDOUT, and TCL_STDERR have been set.
 *
 * Results:
