From: Motohiro KOSAKI Date: 2010-11-26T23:18:49+09:00 Subject: [ruby-core:33406] [Ruby 1.9-Feature#2351] system() hardlinked to /bin/sh Issue #2351 has been updated by Motohiro KOSAKI. And if we accept this proposal, system() will lose user enviroment portability. e.g. csh has completely different syntax from /bin/sh. Thus, distributed ruby scripts will not be able to use system(). ---------------------------------------- http://redmine.ruby-lang.org/issues/show/2351 ---------------------------------------- http://redmine.ruby-lang.org
