I didn't even notice that you are using write and not exec. Why not use
exec and ext_data('merge') for one command runs ? During my testing of
write I found that a while loop isn't sufficient in the case of running
any sort of command that takes a bit of time while producing its
output. Hence why he added the select call. You also get os headers
and other outputs which might not be ideal if you are parsing. Anyway,
Just curious.
