how about
(define (system->string . args)
(string-chomp (with-input-from-pipe (string-join args " ") read-all)))
this is assuming that you meant that you want to construct a single command
from a list of strings. if you wanted each string to be a separate command
it could look like:
(define (system->string . args)
(apply conc
(map
(lambda (x)
(with-input-from-pipe x read-all))
args)))
or if you wanted a list of cmds, where each cmd was either a string or a list
of string components:
(define (system->string . args)
(apply conc
(map
(lambda (x)
(with-input-from-pipe
(if (string? x)
x
(string-join x " "))
read-all))
args)))
granted, none of these do errorchecking or whatnot, but that should be trivial
to add.

I am using the following code, which just takes a single string:

system and system* do not capture the command output.
