I have set up popen to do some file system tasks (opening, moving and
deleting files) which works. It does have a major annoyance in
that for each command passed, a command prompt window opens and then
closes (stealing focus). Is there any way to not have the window
open at all? I set the command prompt application property to run
minimized but that only controls how the app launches when double
clicked. <br>

Also, commands seem to take rather long to complete although I'm not sure how the window opening plays into that.<br>
