- Try to give an output stream to the program. For example:
-
- if (nil = Open( "nil:", MODE_NEWFILE ))
- {
- Execute("program",0,nil);
- Close( nil);
- }
-
- Be carefull in 1.3, if "program" launches itself other programs, it must have
- something more consistent than nil:, so in this case you better should open
- a "con:........" for Execute() instead of nil:.
