[fpc-pascal] Redirecting input to a child process

[Ludo Brands]

Correction: 'Anton'#13#10 is read from stdout. More adds the CR. Windows
style EOL ...

If you run 'more' in a cmd window you'll notice that 'more' echoes the input
but only sends to stdout when a return is entered. I modified the program to
send 'Anton'#10 and the program reads back 'Anton'#10 from stdout.

I played a bit with it, but was unable to make it work. I added a writeln of
outstream.size to the "running" while, and it seems output is written.

It seems the program somehow doesn't get the signal to close. (since I can
see more.com is still running in the taskmgr)
