One thing lacking in PostScript is good foreign function interface. There
is %pipe% (specific to Ghostscript, but I had made a list of my own ideas
of a new version of PostScript, and this is one of them), but the pipe is
only one direction of data at a time; it is not two way pipe.

There is printobject/writeobject (reading this format can be implemented
in a not too long C code, which I had posted to this newsgroup before),
although it has some limitations.
