StdIn for desktop

Is there a desktop equivalent for the console StdIn?

I need to read a binary stream (png image) from a FFmpeg pipe stdOut

If you have the MBS plugins you might be able to use StdinMBS:

See also Console and GUI in one project

But in general the Shell Class (or ShellMBS class) redirects the stdout of the child process to capture that data and allows you to send something to the stdin.
