Ah, of course. Thank you, Liam! That's what I needed.
All best,

You could run, bash -c 'echo hello > hello.txt'
instead, maybe?
This is assuming you are using Linux or the Linux subsystem on Windows,
or cygwin, or OS X... so bash is available.

Hello,
Is it possible to redirect output from a system command within the
proc:execute function?
I would like to do something like:
proc:execute("echo", ("hello!", "> hello.txt"))
but the ">" does not seem to be recognized.
Thanks in advance,
Tim
