Reading command output from plasmoid
Hi, i would like to join the Jam Session, and I have an idea for my plasmoid, but I'm having a little trouble with it. I would like to read output from console command, (eg. ps -e or la). I can run command with: plasmoid.runCommand, but how can I read output from it? Thanks in advance. P.S. How can I join mailing list? -- Nikola Milenković electroni...@gmail.com ___ Plasma-devel mailing list Plasma-devel@kde.org https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/plasma-devel

Needs be done asynchronously in a background thread unless one knows it will always be instantaneous. Qt4 classes are available, probably the backend used by the above. Dataengine will be asynch if used properly. I might try it with qt4 stuff. ___ Plasma-devel mailing list Plasma-devel@kde.org https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/plasma-devel
