The 1st method that I have think is this:
{
...
char sys_string[1024];
...
bzero(sys_string,1024);
strcpy(sys_string,"slider 10 | fit_it -f ");
strcat(sys_string,fileName);
strcat(sys_string," -xmgr | xmgr-dynamic -source stdin&");
system(sys_string);
...
}
Nothe that the system call (in my example) can not to be grater then 1024
chars (it is some limit)..
Bye bye and sorry for my bad english
