calling an external program

[1/12] from: michelemdl::libero::it at: 14-Dec-2001 9:41

Hello. How can I call an external program with parameters from Rebol? The name of the program is ALADDIN, and that's its command line: ALADDIN -f inputfile > outputfile Thanks

Hi Michele, << How can I call an external program with parameters from Rebol? >> You need /View-Pro or /Command and then you can use the 'call statement to do it. --Gregg

It can't be done from /View not Pro? Il ven, 2001-12-14 alle 18:41, Gregg Irwin ha scritto:

Hi Michele, << It can't be done from /View not Pro? >> Correct. You need View/Pro. --Gregg

I am not able to find this address. Can you send the complete correct address of the file? Thank you very much. Regards, Michele

Oops, the correct address is: ( Rebol/View Desktop): rebol.com/library/shell/launch-ext42.r or ( Web): http://www.reboltech.com/library/script-shell.html or Author Site (Web): http://flyingparty.com/deadzaphod/ Luis

Hi Michele, translation: -run Rebol/View -look at the Desktop -click at Rebol.com (you should be connected to the network, click at Local first, if you aren't) -click at Library -click at All -find Launch-ext42.r Cheers Ladislav <<Michele>> (...)

I will interpret for you. ;-) View/rebol.com/library/launch-ext42.r Go to the View Desktop then click on the REBOL.com folder on the left-hand side. Then to the library folder in the right hand side, He did miss a part here, you will need to click the "Shell" folder, & there you will find %launch-ext42.r Enjoy!! Ammon

Hi John, << Not so, see my earlier post. >> Is that the one regarding launch-ext42.r, or something else? The info about launch-ext42.r came up after I replied I think. --Gregg
