Hello,

I found this little example and expanded on it:
http://rosettacode.org/wiki/Execute_a_system_command#Ada

I used the example where GNAT.OS_Lib is used.  Everything works like I want it to, almost.  If I want to call a Linux command, I have to specify the exact path to it /bin/ls.  How can I import the various Linux environment variables so tha I can just call 'ls' without specifying the direct path to the binary?
