[nflug] FreePascal Shell Command

[Mark Deazley]

In the PDF document:

    ftp://ftp.freepascal.org/pub/fpc/docs-pdf/rtl.pdf

on page 1534, section 32.3.28, the 'Shell' function is
described...

Declaration: function Shell(const Command: String) : cint
             function Shell(const Command: AnsiString) : cint

"Shell invokes the bash shell (/bin/sh), and feeds it the command Command
(using the -c option).
The function then waits for the command to complete, and then returns the
exit status of the
command, or 127 if it could not complete the FpFork (140) or FpExecve
(137) calls."

Does this fit the requirement???
