Help with shell() script

[xavier.bury at clearstream.com]

Hi Paul,

The problem, if im correct, is that you are assigning the shell to be the 
exe to be exectuted in the shell...

Set the shellcommand to "cmd.exe" -- reset it to what it should be - if im 
correct... i didn't know we could set "dir" and the shell command!
get shell(filepath && "Version")

should work better IMOHO...

Unfortunately i dont have the openssl.exe from cygwin to test.

hope that helps
cheers
Xavier
