From: Joe Percival Date: 2006-08-05T23:32:55+09:00 Subject: Start an external application - How? I don't need details, just a push in the right direction. How do you start a series of external applications from within ruby (on windows). For example, I want to start mywebcamapp.exe and myweatherapp.exe. Also, is it possible to have a ruby script that will stop an external process? Thanks, joe -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.
