Well that's handy, I poked around all over looking and didn't even how that document was available. :-)

I have been using system.popen() which works well also (once I remembered it is popen and not open :-/ )

I had followed http://wiki.synchro.net/ref:index#external_references but the link threw a "no resources available" so I edited the wiki and corrected the link for future reference, hope you don't mind :-)
