<p>
The <b>system</b> function is used to issue a command.
Execution of your program will not continue until the command has completed.
<p>
<pre>
Library: stdlib.h
Prototype: int system(const char *cmd);
Syntax: system( "cat /etc/hosts");
Notes:
In Unix systems, the command is passed to "/bin/sh -c" for
execution. I do not know what handles the command in DOS systems.
