Hi all,

looks like Rev is not (yet) working with Windows 7.

I have a valid pathname to a valid EXE file in "the_app".

This does not work:
...
launch the_app
answer the result
## I get "not opened"
## A good laugh, but not really useful :-D
...

This does work:
...
set the hideconsolewindows to true
get shell("start" && QUOTE & QUOTE && QUOTE & the_app & QUOTE=
...

So looks like "launch" is broken on Windows 7!?
Could someone check this please before I file this as a bugreport? 
Thanks!


Best

Klaus
