NSTask interaction

Hello all

I am fairly new to Cocoa so I apologize for my stupid question in advance. ;-)

I am trying to make something of a command line tool wrapper as my first real project. However, I am having trouble as I am not sure if I am expecting too much of an NSTask. As I understand, when you run an NSTask, you can only pass it arguments once, correct? My problem is that I need to further interact with the task--I don't want it to simply end. I want to keep passing it data and getting the output into an NSString for parsing. I am under the impression that an NSPipe comes into play, but I am really confused about all of this. Is this possible and if so, how would I do it?

Thanks in advance! :-)
