Sending commands to sman via a pipe does not work.

This method is currently used on MathAction and in the TexMacs? interface to send commands to FRICASsys with no problems. In order to get Axiom graphics running on MathAction and under TexMacs? , we will need to start sman instead of FRICASsys in order to setup the process handling for graphics. But when I try to pipe commands to sman, even with the -noht -noclef options, sman just issues two prompts and waits. It does not seem to try to read from stdin. If I try to key in )quit and yes, etc. there is no reaction and I must eventually kill the process(es).
