unix_x - shell (sh) command execution, output redirected to a window

Calling Sequence

unix_x(cmd)

Parameters

Description

Sends a string cmd to Unix for execution by the sh shell. The standard output is redirected to a window. Unix execution errors are trapped; *NOTE* that only the last shell command error is reported when a list of command separated by ";" is sent: this is not recommended.

Examples


if MSDOS then unix_x("dir "+'""'+WSCI+"\demos"+'""'); 
else unix_x("ls $SCI/demos"); end
