You might try something like:
get shell("mylongcommand > output.txt &")
This should redirect the output to a file and return immediately.
It's not as clean as triggering a "done" message with new syntax
would be, but it may be workable. You might try searching the
archives - I seem to recall discussing this one many moons ago...

I want to call the shell command and let the user get on with other
gui stuff... wouldn't it be nice to have:
put shell("something really slow") with message "doneIT" ?
Very good idea!
Do you fill an enhancement in Revzilla? If not I'll do it, let me
know...

You might be able to build something like that with processes (see
open process etc in the doc).
I cannot figure out how to implement that. Have you a sample script?
