@{ Some routines to support writing programs portable between Dos and
  Unix. Perhaps it would be a good idea not to put features to make
  Dos programs Unix-compatible (shell redirections) and vice versa
  (reading Dos files from Unix) together into one unit, but rather
  into two units, DosCompat and UnixCompat or so -- let's wait and
  see, perhaps when more routines suited for this/these unit(s) will
  be found, the design will become clearer ...

@{ This function is meant to be used when you want to invoke a system
  shell command (e.g. via Execute or Exec from the Dos unit) and
  want to specify input/output redirections for the command invoked.
  It caters for the different syntax between DJGPP (with the @samp{redir}
  utility) and other systems.

  To use it, code your redirections in bash style (see the table
  below) in your command line string, pass this string to this
  function, and the function's result to Execute or the other
  routines.

  The function translates the following bash style redirections
  (characters in brackets are optional) into a redir call under Dos
  systems except EMX, and leave them unchanged under other systems.
  Note: @samp{redir} comes with DJGPP, but it should be possible to
  install it on other Dos systems as well. OS/2's shell, however,
  supports bash style redirections, I was told, so we don't
  translate on EMX.
