Re: [Vala] howto invoke an external process

[Dan Hitt <dan hitt gmail com>]

Well, there's an extern facility which allows you to call arbitrary
c code.  (Don't have the exact reference handy right this moment.)

And from arbitrary c code you could do a system("...");

(This may not be the most pleasant way to do it, and i'd also be
interested in a cleaner solution, for example, a SubProcess class.)
