Thank you, but that only works if inside another loop, and then it is a 
busy-wait, right?
We don't really have a predicate to tell us when we need to stop waiting, 
unless we use the test condition for that.
We could do

 (while (accept-process-output proc 0.1 nil t))

which isn't strictly necessary since the test logic guarantees that only two 
accept-process-output calls should be needed, but it doesn't hurt (much).
