There's nothing specifically in FLTK to do what you want, as that's not something that belongs to a GUI toolkit. You need some platform specific code, which is ugly both on windows and linux (and also troublesome to debug). Find attached a simple example (taken from my mrLiquid) that simplifies Windows (win32 - not tested under vista) and Linux cumbersome apis to a simpler api. You will just need to change one or two stuff, like the macro LOG_ERROR and the win32_error_to_MString() function. For simple stuff, rely on using mr_system() which works just like system(). If you need to control where input comes from and output/error messages go or need to allow killing the process at some point, use the more complex mr_popen3(). -- Gonzalo Garramuño [EMAIL PROTECTED] AMD4400 - ASUS48N-E GeForce7300GT Kubuntu Edgy
