So, it should look like this:

def pictureMethod
executeNativeCommand("ls | grep \"jpg\" > pictures.txt")
pictureFile = File.open("pictures.txt","r")
while(pictureFile.hasMoreLines)
array.attach(pictureFile.actualLine)
pictureFile.goOneLineDown
end
end
=========================================

Try this:

  Dir['*.txt']

sample resulting array:

  ["codes.txt", "desc.txt", "map.txt", "temp.txt"]

easy, eh?
