Hello,

A while back someone asked about trying to run unix
shell commands on a remote unix box from an Explorer.
I seem to recall that there were some replies that
looked promising.

Unfortunately (gag) we seem to have lost our archive of
the Info-TI bboard so I can't look back beyond last
april.

If anyone knows how to do this could you possibly sent
me the fix.  I'm looking for something that will do
things like:


(run-shell-command "pwd" :On "Sumex-Aim.Stanford.Edu")

-> "/a/rice"


Having this would make simple a fix for all of those
questions about file protection, since one could advise
a (run-shell-command (string-append "cmod 400 " (send path :String-For-Host)))
around the file close.

Many thanks in advance.



Rice.
