RE: Launch vxWorks Script from Lua Shell

["Katherine Shaughnessy" <kathersh@...>]

It turns out that os.execute doesn't have the expected behaviour on
vxWorks. 

The scripts are not being executed - although there was no indication of
that after running the command. 

Has anyone had to do this? Any solution?

Thanks.

 Well, you can always use the old standby:

 os.execute('COMMAND > /tmp/1')

 or even

 f = io.popen ('COMMAND')
