[REBOL] Re: call/output to string bug in Windows

Hi Terry, On Thursday, February 27, 2003, 6:56:54 PM, you wrote: TB> launch applications, open a browser to a URL (this must be what "Browse" TB> uses.) Find a copy of the API below... I use this as well. TB> But how to use this to do a shell command, WITH output to a string! ?? I think there's no easy way; maybe on NT you could send the output to a pipe and get it back on REBOL; in general you could send the output to a temporary file and read it back. I don't know if this is easy to do with ShellExecute, surely there has to be a way to do it.
