So far, I got by with the small  System.Cmd  module from the  process
library which is included in the Haskell Platform.

If you need to capture  stdin  and  stdout , you may want to look at
System.Process  from the same library instead. Other libraries are
available on hackage, too, like John Goerzen's (of RWH fame) package  HSH :
