Perhaps these examples may help you ....

Example 1

Code:

' system
' ------

' 'system cmd' executes a system command.
system "dir"

' This executes the system command 'pause', which waits for the user to press any key.
system "pause"

' Clear the console window
system "cls"

' If called in an expression, 'system' returns the output of the command instead of printing it
' to the console window.
result = system("dir")

' Print the first line.
pln "First line: " + split(result, chr(10))[0]
pln

system "pause"

Example 2

Code:

' 'system' works as in n6, but can also be used in an expression to capture the
' output instead of sending it to stdout.

' This probably doesn't work on Linux.
result = system("dir /b /a-d")
pln "Press enter to see the captured result!"
a = rln()
pln result

pln "Press enter to see it again!"
a = rln()
system "dir /b /a-d"

pln
pln "Press enter to exit"
tmp = rln()
