<p><span style="font-size: large;">Thanks for the tips. I will check it out.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: large;">In the meantime I tried this with OSProcess (thanks Nicola for your cookbook), but its seems the output stream must be a file, which I would like to avoid. Am I correct?</span></p>
<pre><span style="font-size: large;">| proc d outStream |
d := Delay forMilliseconds: 50.
outStream := ReadWriteStream on: String new.
proc := UnixProcess
forkJob: '/usr/bin/bash'
arguments: {'-c'. 'ls -l'}
environment: nil
descriptors: {nil. outStream.nil}.
[proc runState == #complete] whileFalse: [d wait].
