Objet: [REBOL] Is there an exec command?
Hello,
I am new to Rebol and interested in its scripting capabilities. I would
like to run other external os commands (ie .exe type commands) but
cannot find a Rebol word to do this. Is there one?

Hi,
You have to use the "call" function like this:
call "c:\toto.exe\"
It 's execut in a another thread. If you want to wait the end of the
external command use call/wait
You can use:
call/console "ls -l" to look at the result
call/output "ls -l" buffer to have the result in the buffer
call/input to give some args to the external os commands
bye
