+# open3.rb: Spawn a program like popen, but with stderr, too. You might also
+# want to use this if you want to bypass the shell. (By passing multiple args,
+# with IO#popen does not allow)
+#
# Usage:
# require "open3"
#
-# in, out, err = Open3.popen3('nroff -man')
+# stdin, stdout, stderr = Open3.popen3('nroff -man')
# or
# include Open3
-# in, out, err = popen3('nroff -man')
-#
+# stdin, stdout, stderr = popen3('nroff -man')
module Open3
#[stdin, stdout, stderr] = popen3(command);
