Start a subprocess with two-way communication.

@table @code
@item dev
ID of device containing a directory entry for this file.
 
@item ino
File number of the file.

File mode, as an integer.  Use the functions @w{@code{S_ISREG}},
@w{@code{S_ISDIR}}, @w{@code{S_ISCHR}}, @w{@code{S_ISBLK}},
@w{@code{S_ISFIFO}}, @w{@code{S_ISLNK}}, or @w{@code{S_ISSOCK}}@ to extract
information from this value.
 
@item modestr
File mode, as a string of ten letters or dashes as would be returned by
@kbd{ls -l}.
 
@item nlink
Number of links.
 
@item uid
User ID of file's owner.
 
@item gid
Group ID of file's group.
 
@item rdev
ID of device for block or character special files.
 
@item size
Size in bytes.
 
@item atime
Time of last access in the same form as time values returned from
@code{time}.  @xref{Timing Utilities}.
 
@item mtime
Time of last modification in the same form as time values returned from
@code{time}.  @xref{Timing Utilities}.
 
@item ctime
Time of last file status change in the same form as time values
returned from @code{time}.  @xref{Timing Utilities}.

Size of blocks in the file.
 
@item blocks
Number of blocks allocated for file.
