Hi I've had a strange problem with using the shell command. everything
works as normal:
put shell ("ls -la")
But I have a shell command which works on the command line but not with
using the LiveCode shell command. So:
ipfs version
Works fine and returns:
ipfs version 0.3.2
Note the syntax is not "ipfs --version" or "ipfs -v". And the follwoing
command in LiveCode:
put shell ("ipfs version")
returns:
Error: Expected 0 arguments, got 1
Use 'ipfs version --help' for information about this command
So it seems that Livecode is treating the second word in a different way to
the actual shell.
Any ideas what to do?
