[Gambas-user] my stream is not working

[lozza1978]

Hi All,

after playing with the stream for a few hours ive come to the conclusion
that 

'EXEC ["dvdauthor", "-o", Textbox3.Text &/ "dvd", "-x", Textbox3.Text &/
"dvd.xml"] FOR READ AS "chaps"'

is not a stream and i guess thats the reason why i cant chaps_Read() any
data,
