BTW What is the content of the test.sh? Does it start with '#!/bin/bash' or '#!/bin/sh' ? If not your command shouls be '/bin/bash /full path/test.sh' Just a tip, use as command "(/home/usr/paul/bin/text.sh)" Yes indeed surround your command with () This force all output by bash and command to 1 output for process_read Best regards, Ron_1st -- A: Delete the text you reply on.
