I'm trying to call markdown as an external process

by Pat Maddox

I'm trying to do something which (I think) is very simple: I just want to run a line of text through Markdown and get the output. I've spent all day reading through the code for OSProcess and CommandShell. It took me a while, but I finally figured out I can run a command and get its output with: UnixProcess waitForCommandOutput: 'ls ~' The next problem I'm having is getting markdown to run on an arbitrary string. If I go into my shell and do: $ /usr/local/bin/markdown <<END > # This is a heading > This is a paragraph with _emphasis_ > END <h1>This is a heading</h1> Then I get the output that I expect: <p>This is a paragraph with <em>emphasis</em></p> I can't figure out how to do this with OSProcess though. I've tried: UnixProcess waitForCommand: ('/usr/local/bin/markdown <<END hello world END') but with no luck. I've also tried using OSProcess at a lower level, setting up the stream input object, but it seems to require a reference to an actual file, rather than just a stream. Anyone have any ideas? I want to take an arbitrary string and use that as the input to my markdown command, and then store that output in an instance variable. I could use some help. Thanks, Pat
