Thanks for the reply.
NSTask just isn't working, thats the problem. I'm listening for notifications on the pipes to read the output from the clu and what I am getting is missing beginning and ending characters and if it has more than one word, about half the time the other words in the output are simply lost. That's why I am really hoping there is a primitive out there I can use instead of NSTask.


Thanks

I know that I can use us the foundation framework to run a command line utility. The problem is that about half of the output from one of the utilities I need to run is lost. It just never reaches the main application. However in another program I use the security framework to run a command line utility and I use a FILE pointer to retrieve the data from stdout and it works perfectly. So I am wondering is there a way to run a command line utility where I use a FILE pointer to retrieve the output that is similar to the security framework without actually using that framework? I looked at the primitive system() command but that does not accept a FILE pointer.
Thanks for any help.
