From: Henning von Rosen Date: 2002-05-17T16:09:47+09:00 Subject: 10000 images windows shell scripting How do I accomplish the simple invocation from a ruby script of a program that I normally start from the DOS prompt. The backslash doesn't work, and I don't get the workarounds mantiond for shell commands to work, or is that not the same thing? I feel really newbie-ish about this, and I really need it to work very soon. Hints/links apprechiated. I'v got 10000 images to vectorize, doing it by hand won't do any good. Doing it with Ruby would be nice. amike via Henning
