From: Devin Mullins Date: 2006-11-29T16:00:21+09:00 Subject: I'm a process-spawning idiot. I'm looking for a method that, like Kernel#` and IO::popen, allows me to call out to the system and grab its stdout. However, I'd like it to accept multiple args (like Kernel#system), so I don't have to worry about filenames with spaces and backslashes and the like. Alternatively, I'll take a lib that escapes strings for Kernel#`, provided it works on win32, unix, cygwin... I'm sure I'm just missing the obvious. Help? Thanks, Devin
