The Exec Dialog in Tycho provides a dialog window that can execute a
process in a user specified directory and display the results.
In Tycho0.1.1, the Exec Dialog uses non-blocking I/O, which is not
supported under Windows. The Exec Dialog also will not work under the
Macintosh. Consult the tcl open
man page for more
information.
