unix_x

Arguments

cmd

a character string

Description

Sends a string cmd to Unix for execution by the sh shell. The standard output is redirected to a window. Unix execution errors are trapped.

*NOTE* that only the last shell command error is reported when a list of command separated by ";" is sent: this is not recommended.

Examples

if getos() == 'Windows' then
  unix_x("dir "+""""+WSCI+"modules\graphics\demos"+"""");
else
  unix_x("ls $SCI/modules/graphics/demos");
end
