[Gambas-user] Send data to the process

[Dimitris Anogiatis]

You could just try this:

Dim app2Result as String
SHELL "app2 2 multiply 2" to app2Result

Just make sure that app2 can parse the arguments passed to it, perform the
multiplication and then use PRINT to output the results. That's what will
go into app2Result

Hope this helps
