Rails - Feb 2006 - Access a command line tool

I had a command line tool that I would like to use to process any files 
that is uploaded to my server.

How does the Rails application exexcute a command line tool?

Thanks.
Yours sincerely,
Isaac Timothy

Place the command inside backquotes, you can pass arguments etc..
>> name = ''Jonny''
=> "Jonny"
>> `echo Hello #{name}`
=> "Hello Jonny\n"

-Jonny.
