Just an adendum to this.
I'm actually trying to call cap deploy with the result of this function

    logger.debug("Creating domain")
    cmd = create_command_line_string("cap cloud_deploy:setup -S 
destination=#{self.requested_url}")
    response = `#{cmd}`
    exit_code = $?
    logger.debug("@@@@ Create domain response = #{response}, Exit code = 
#{exit_code}")
    exit_code

This is producing a command "c:/development/cloud/cap cloud_deploy:setup 
-S etc..."
Which is fine on the server as the Rails.root will give me the correct 
application root path but not on development.
In development I obviously need to just replace the / slashes with \ 
slashes.
It would be nice though if the ` backtick usage actually returned 
something. Anything at all would be good but the output from the 
logger.debug looks like this

@@@@ Create domain response = , Exit code =

So maybe backticks are not the right solution? Is there something that 
will give me more info over what is going on so I can deal with results 
more effectively?
