[Gambas-user] exec also working as shell why?

[PICCORO McKAY Lenz]

originally i was to grep a configuration file..later due the complicated
process changed to a cat .. an then due the inherent problems of make a
complicated process use directo EXEC "commando" to Variable...

now my code evoluted to "File.Load("somefile")

HOLY SHIT! !!! that's not was that i want! X-D
