Hi,
The method I've been using for submitting shell commands is asynchronous...
For example:-
shellCmd := '<long running shell command here>'.
pipe := FileStream popen: shellCmd dir: FileStream read.
pipe returns after about a second no matter how long the shell command
takes to complete.
Is there a way to call shell commands in a synchronous fashion?
