# System Interaction
|
||
|
|
||
|
The `unix:` namespace contains words for interacting with the
|
||
|
host operating system.
|
||
|
|
||
|
~~~
|
||
|
#5 'io:UnixSyscall var<n>
|
||
|
:io:unix-syscall @io:UnixSyscall 0; as{ 'ii...... i }as ;
|
||
|
~~~
|
||
|
|
||
|
`unix:system` runs another application using the system shell
|
||
|
and returns after execution is completed.
|
||
|
|
||
|
~~~
|
||
|
:unix:system (s-) #0 io:unix-syscall ;
|
||
|
~~~
|
||
|
|
||
|
`unix:fork` forks the current process and returns a process
|
||
|
identifier.
|
||
|
|
||
|
~~~
|
||
|
:unix:fork (-n) #1 io:unix-syscall ;
|
||
|
~~~
|
||
|
|
||
|
This group is used to execute a new process in place of the
|
||
|
current one. These take a program and optionally 1-3 arguments.
|
||
|
They map to the execl() system call.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Example:
|
||
|
|
||
|
'/usr/bin/cal '2 '2019 unix:exec2
|
||
|
|
||
|
~~~
|

`unix:exit` takes a return code and exits RRE, returning the
|
||
|
specified code.
|
||
|
|
||
|
~~~
|
||
|
:unix:exit (n-) #6 io:unix-syscall ;

|

`unix:getpid` returns the current process identifier.
|
||
|
|
||
|
~~~
|
||
|
:unix:getpid (-n) #7 io:unix-syscall ;
|
||
|
~~~
|
||
|
|
||
|
`unix:wait` waits for a child process to complete. This maps to
|
||
|
the wait() system call.
|
||
|
|
||
|
~~~
|
||
|
:unix:wait (-n) #8 io:unix-syscall ;
|
||
|
~~~
|
||
|
|
||
|
`unix:kill` terminates a process. Takes a process and a signal
|
||
|
to send.
|
||
|
|
||
|
~~~
|
||
|
:unix:kill (nn-) #9 io:unix-syscall ;
|
||
|
~~~
|
||
|
|
||
|
The next two words allow opening and closing pipes. The first,
|
||
|
`unix:popen` takes the name of a program and a file mode and
|
||
|
returns a file handle usable with words in the `file:` namespace.
|
||
|
The second, `unix:pclose` closes the pipe.
|
||
|
|
||
|
~~~
|
||
|
:unix:popen (sn-n) #10 io:unix-syscall ;

`unix:chdir` changes the current working directory to the
|
||
|
specified one.
