Here's a NextStep question:

Suppose I have a NextStep app that has some buttons that execute 
shell scripts via a "system" call.  And suppose I want to direct the
output of the scripts into a view in the same app.  How would I go
about routing the shell script output from the console window (where it
goes now) to the view in my app?

I think builddisk does this very thing, so it appears possible.

Pointers are great; code stubbs even better.

Thanks in advance!
