Hi.. A quick question for any, and all, Modula2/Unix gurus.
I am implementing code that needs to get at the Unix command line.
Is there anyway possible to get at the command line with the standard
Unix libraries.  If so, how can I do it.  If not, why?

I'm using a MIPS (RISC) computer running Metrowerks Modula-2 compiler.  

I've also tried writing a C header program to pull off argv, and argc, convert
them to strings, and then call Modula-2.  The problem is that the linker will
not recognize the Modula-2 symbols in the C file.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Please respond with E-Mail if you can.  If there is significant response, I
can post a summary.

Thanks in Advance,
Bill McLean
