Talk:Shell one-liner

From Rosetta Code

Which Shell?

Which shell? Normally the programming language does not specify existence of any shells or others environmental tasks. What happens if the program is run as an OS driver, a system service, or without any OS at all on the bare board? Otherwise, how does this task differ from Execute a System Command? Does spawning a shell qualify? --Dmitry-kazakov 13:15, 26 August 2008 (UTC)

I guess we could restrict it to mean systems that have command line shells such as bash/tcsh/... on Unix systems, cmd.exe on Windows, or posix-like shells. Maybe we should state what shell the command line is compatible with? --Paddy3118 13:55, 26 August 2008 (UTC)
