Okay, this looks quite good. The HowTo tells to extend the 
lowlevel_core, which did not work. The rest of my work is like your 
explenaiton. So i gonna change my classes, and will tell, what happened.

PRobably there should be a Howto on typo3.org or a possibility to start 
CLI Interface in Kickstarter.
If I gonna publish one or both of this, how should I talk to for use?
