[Cuis-dev] FFI to execute shell command

[Gerald Klix]

Hi Hilaire,

What do you mean by "shell command"?
Do you mean a shell-script or one command built into a shell like "cd"?

Of course you should be able to use the clib's  `system` function,
to execute a shell-script, but that would just duplicate the functionality
of OSProcess class>>#command:, provided by the OSProcess package.


HTH,

Gerald
