It doesn't at the moment, but it would be trivial to add. Why not try to add it yourself? The source file you're interested in is src/action.c, there's a table at the bottom of actions defined in that file. Add one for "System()" or "Shell()", copy one of the smaller existing actions, and edit as needed. ActionMessage() is probably a good function to copy from. _______________________________________________ geda-user mailing list geda-user@moria.seul.org http://www.seul.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/geda-user
