[REBOL] Re: Shelll access

Hello Kai,
Will Arp's shell function in post of 16 October last year might provide an answer for
you: http://www.rebol.net/list/list-msgs/31804.html I've had pretty good success with
this under both Linux and OS X.
Shlik also has a section "Launch native applications from REBOL" http://www.shlik.org/links.html#exe
but I haven't tried any of these methods.
I know that it was supposed to preserve portability but the inability to directly call
external programs from /Core is one of the (few) disappointments in REBOL.
Cheers,
Trevor.
