Ive tried everything I can think of, Print & Input, WriteStdOut& ReadStdIn, StandardIOStream.ReadLine, and have got nowhere. Is such a thing even possible with Max?

well.. you *can* read / write to a common file..

That's not what I had in mind.. I want to be able to read output from one application into another, for example like the output bmk puts out.

socketstream may be the answer

I cannot find the source to MaxEdit, a lot of the results come up with MaxGui and all the links to MaxEdit are broken. I also haven't seen anything in the source to MaxIDE that does such a thing.

Found a few interesting points in fasm2as source, it seems to be creating a bank stream to the application arguments, I dunno how the other app would intercept this though..
