Running another program from a blitz program

Is there a way to run another .exe from inside a blitzmax program? |
| ||
The 'system_' function or the TProcess type. |
| ||
Um, could you give me an example? I really have no idea what those are. |

If you dont know what a Function or Type is, running external executables are the least of your worries ;) In any case... its worth mentioning that system_ blocks the running program, while TProcess does not. system_("notepad.exe") ''or Local proc:TProcess = CreateProcess("notepad.exe") While proc.Status() Print "notepad is still running" Delay 500 Wend |
