in GNAT&#65292;there are two subprograms in GNAT.OS_LIB,
   procedure Spawn
     (Program_Name : String;
      Args         : Argument_List;
      Success      : out Boolean);

   function Non_Blocking_Spawn
     (Program_Name : String;
      Args         : Argument_List)
      return         Process_Id;
they can execute the external file.
