NAME
       filter_create_fp  - similar to filter_create_fd except with buffered
       FILE*

SYNOPSIS
       #include <util/filter.h>

       NEOERR *filter_create_fp(const char *cmd, FILE **in, FILE **out, FILE **err,
                                pid_t *pid);

ARGUMENTS
       cmd -> the sub command to execute.  Will be executed with
       /bin/sh -c
       in -> pointer to return the stdin pipe, or NULL if you don't
       want the stdin pipe
       out -> pointer to return the stdout pipe, or NULL if you don't
       want the stdout pipe
       err -> pointer to return the stderr pipe, or NULL if you don't
       want the stderr pipe

DESCRIPTION
       filter_create_fp is identical to filter_create_fd, except each of the
       pipes is wrapped in a buffered stdio FILE

RETURN VALUE
       in -> the stdin FILE of the sub process
       out -> the stdout FILE of the sub process
       err -> the stderr FILE of the sub process
       pid -> the pid of the sub process
