hi, all !

what is the most recent and/or stable method to talk to the operation 
system (i.e. command line operations sended from PD to windows or linux) ?

so far i'm aware of 2 objects that do this:

[system] by the motex library
[shell] by the ggee library

[system] is a bit mysterious as it seems to do things right, but doesn't 
really give a return result. [shell] on the other hand ouputs directly 
to his outlet only, so it is useable for "ls" commands etc.

both objects are very old and i just wanted to ask, if there's a little 
more "up to date" way to do this - probably with vanilla objects only.

best

oliver
