[newbie] Questions about NSTask and GUI/Shell (urgent help needed)

I'm doing a GUI Cocoa application for Sicstus Prolog that runs in the shell on MacOS X, for my MSc.

I managed to start Sicstus through my program, using NSTask and basing my code on Moriarty.

But the way sicstus works means that I need to have some sort of interactive task working, in the sense that while sicstus is running i can use my GUI program to input prolog files to sicstus, perform queries, etc...

As far as I know NSPipe is used to communicate between different tasks, but I dont think that would help me in my case. Do i have to use AppleScript to "simulate" everything for the user or can I do this easily using NSTask in Cocoa?

I've been looking through the archives and other pages, but i havent found examples about how to do a gui frontend to a complete shell application such as sicstus...

thanks for all your help,
afonso
