Hi All,
I have a shell process that I am launching an executable - so

good, but I need to wait for that operation to complete before

appropriate since it involves some user input.
You could make the shell command wait til it completes
Watch the process id of the program you launched until it disappears
and then quit the shell
Do this synchronously
Or pass the PID back to REALbasic and then you can spin your wheels
in RB waiting for that process to terminate
