Talk:Get system command output

From Rosetta Code

Do we need this task when we have Execute a system command?

Do we? --Paddy3118 (talk) 07:39, 11 April 2014 (UTC)

IMHO it makes more sense to add storing the output as an option/extra credit to Execute a system command. --Andreas Perstinger (talk) 10:43, 11 April 2014 (UTC)
That might have been better had we thought of it when "Execute a system command" was still a draft task but it has over a hundred entries making any task update unfair to the existing entries.
I think the choice should be "do we delete this as being too similar or not". --Paddy3118 (talk) 10:58, 11 April 2014 (UTC)
