I wish to make a program that will ask the user to select a utility program he wishes to execute. After the user has entered his/her choice, the program will execute the chosen utility. I know this can be done from CLI using setkey and setmap, but I want a program instead of it. The execution can be done by using the command : execute(command, stdin, stdout) But this is not what I want. I want the execution to wait until my program has finished. Can this be done ? - Will redirecting STDOUT to STDIN cause this and if so how is this done ? - Is it possible to add commands to the keyboard queue ? - Is there an other solution ? I would welcome any help. Marco Dedecker
