Returns an unspecified value. Note that expressions and subforms are not automatically escaped, so (run (ls a "b c")) will pass 3 arguments to the {{ls}} command. === run* <syntax>(run* COMMAND ...)</syntax> Similar to {{run}} but returns the return status of each command as multiple result values. === capture <syntax>(capture COMMAND ...)</syntax> Similar to {{run}} but captures everything written by the subprocess to stdout and returns the output as a string. In case the command fails, an empty string is returned (there is currently no way to distinguish between a failed command and one that produces no output). === shell <syntax>(shell COMMAND ...)</syntax> Returns a procedure that, when invoked will run the given shell commands. The procedure accepts the same keyword arguments as {{execute}}. Note that unquoted subexpressions in the command-list are evaluated when the procedure is invoked, not when it is created. === execute <procedure>(execute COMMANDLIST #!key status verbose)</procedure> Converts {{COMMANDLIST}} to a string by flattening the list-structure of each command and interspersing it with whitespace ({{" "}}) and invokes it as a shell command. If {{status}} is given and true, then {{execute}} returns the exit status, with one result value for each element in {{COMMANDLIST}}. If {{verbose}} is given and true, it overrides the current setting of {{shell-verbose}}. This is the underlying primitive used by {{run[*]}} and {{shell}}. === shell-verbose <parameter>shell-verbose</parameter> When true, shell commands invoked via {{run}}, {{run*}} and {{shell}} are displayed on the port given by {{(current-output-port)}}. === Authors Felix Winkelmann === Repository This egg is hosted on the CHICKEN Subversion repository: [[https://anonymous@code.call-cc.org/svn/chicken-eggs/release/5/shell|https://anonymous@code.call-cc.org/svn/chicken-eggs/release/5/shell]] If you want to check out the source code repository of this egg and you are not familiar with Subversion, see [[/egg-svn-checkout|this page]]. === License This code is in the public domain === Version History ; 0.4 : ported to CHICKEN 5 ; 0.3 : added {{capture}} ; 0.1 : initial version Description of your changes:
