You're right: Subprocess Creation, Synchronous Processes,
Asynchronous Processes, Output from Processes, Filter
Functions, Displaying Messages, and Batch Mode.
Not sure what I meant by the text you cite, but the rest
of what I wrote there should make clear that, although we
use the term in several places, we don't actually say what
we mean by it. This bit, for instance:
On the other hand, would it be good to say something about
the streams (the terms) "standard output" and "standard error"
in node `Output Streams'? We refer to both (especially the
former) in various places, but we don't say what those names
mean.
Some short description, at least, would be helpful.
