+=head1 NAME
+
+IPC::Open3, open3 - open a process for reading, writing, and error handling
+
+=head1 SYNOPSIS
+
+ $pid = open3(\*CHLD_IN, \*CHLD_OUT, \*CHLD_ERR,
+ 'some cmd and args', 'optarg', ...);
+
+ my($wtr, $rdr, $err);
+ use Symbol 'gensym'; $err = gensym;
+ $pid = open3($wtr, $rdr, $err,
+ 'some cmd and args', 'optarg', ...);
+
+ waitpid( $pid, 0 );
+ my $child_exit_status = $? >> 8;
+
+=head1 DESCRIPTION
+
+Extremely similar to open2(), open3() spawns the given $cmd and
+connects CHLD_OUT for reading from the child, CHLD_IN for writing to
+the child, and CHLD_ERR for errors. If CHLD_ERR is false, or the
+same file descriptor as CHLD_OUT, then STDOUT and STDERR of the child
+are on the same filehandle (this means that an autovivified lexical
+cannot be used for the STDERR filehandle, see SYNOPSIS). The CHLD_IN
+will have autoflush turned on.
+
+If CHLD_IN begins with C<< <& >>, then CHLD_IN will be closed in the
+parent, and the child will read from it directly. If CHLD_OUT or
+CHLD_ERR begins with C<< >& >>, then the child will send output
+directly to that filehandle. In both cases, there will be a dup(2)
+instead of a pipe(2) made.
+
+If either reader or writer is the null string, this will be replaced
+by an autogenerated filehandle. If so, you must pass a valid lvalue
+in the parameter slot so it can be overwritten in the caller, or
+an exception will be raised.
+
+The filehandles may also be integers, in which case they are understood
+as file descriptors.
+
+open3() returns the process ID of the child process. It doesn't return on
+failure: it just raises an exception matching C</^open3:/>. However,
+C<exec> failures in the child (such as no such file or permission denied),
+are just reported to CHLD_ERR, as it is not possible to trap them.
+
+If the child process dies for any reason, the next write to CHLD_IN is
+likely to generate a SIGPIPE in the parent, which is fatal by default.
+So you may wish to handle this signal.
+
+Note if you specify C<-> as the command, in an analogous fashion to
+C<open(FOO, "-|")> the child process will just be the forked Perl
+process rather than an external command. This feature isn't yet
+supported on Win32 platforms.
+
+open3() does not wait for and reap the child process after it exits.
+Except for short programs where it's acceptable to let the operating system
+take care of this, you need to do this yourself. This is normally as
+simple as calling C<waitpid $pid, 0> when you're done with the process.
+Failing to do this can result in an accumulation of defunct or "zombie"
+processes. See L<perlfunc/waitpid> for more information.
+
+If you try to read from the child's stdout writer and their stderr
+writer, you'll have problems with blocking, which means you'll want
+to use select() or the IO::Select, which means you'd best use
+sysread() instead of readline() for normal stuff.
+
+This is very dangerous, as you may block forever. It assumes it's
+going to talk to something like B<bc>, both writing to it and reading
+from it. This is presumably safe because you "know" that commands
+like B<bc> will read a line at a time and output a line at a time.
+Programs like B<sort> that read their entire input stream first,
+however, are quite apt to cause deadlock.
+
+The big problem with this approach is that if you don't have control
+over source code being run in the child process, you can't control
+what it does with pipe buffering. Thus you can't just open a pipe to
+C<cat -v> and continually read and write a line from it.

+
+This is a CPAN module that has better error handling and more facilities
