32
-- Simple operations to execute a command in the OS environment.
33
-- Implemented by calling the ISO-C standard function "@system@".
35
-- Both versions of @Execute@ should be considered potentially blocking
38
-- Also provided is an interface to the ISO C standard function "@exit@",
39
-- which should kill the process.
47
-- 21-MAR-2002 TW Initial version.
48
-- 25-OCT-2002 TW Added @Terminate_Process@.
