Hi Gang,
      (ada purists close your eyes now...you will not like this question and
I'm forgotten to wear my asbestos underpants....)

has anyone managed to successfully call a shell script in linux from within
an Ada Program or task,
( or does anyone know how?)

is there a package or library for this ?
