I sure hope it will NEVER be possible to do that. Talk about a major
security loophole. Just wait until you hit a webpage that contains an
embeded command to "Format Sys:" or "Delete #?". While I agree that having
ARexx/AmigaDOS scripting support would be nice, the problems that it can
potentially create far outweigh the usefulness of it. It's bad enough that
people were/are exploiting such loopholes in stuff like ActiveX and JavaScript.
Having ARexx support with it's "Address Command" capability could be just as
dangerous as having direct access to AmigaDOS commands.
