That's odd. I thought it wouldn't work for me either, but I tried:
require 'task'
shell '"C:\Program Files (x86)\Dev-Cpp\bigint-4-0-exe\bigInt.exe"'
...
0xf000000000000000 < 0xfedcba9876543210 = TRUE
0xf000000000000000 < 0xfffffffffffffffe = TRUE
0xf000000000000000 < 0xffffffffffffffff = TRUE
...
(just using an exe that happened to be around)
I'm running Windows 8, and
JVERSION
Engine: j701/2011-01-10/11:25
Library: 8.01.026
Qt IDE: 1.0.25/4.8.5
Platform: Win 64
Installer: j801 install
InstallPath: c:/d/j801
Curiouser still!
Good luck,
Mike
