I gave it a quick look. For one thing naming completely misleading. I expect
"Program" word to be used in system calls invocation domain. It we would
stick to proper naming, I believe iostream library already doing exactly
what you are trying to do here (but much better, since it does not require
inheritance! to implement filters)
