Well, I have to take back the comment on command:. I have this code snippet that gets output from a command: | p d | p := (PipeableOSProcess command: 'netstat -a | grep LISTEN | grep 27017'). p keepInitialStdOutOpen: true. d := Delay forMilliseconds: 500. d wait. [Transcript show: (p next: 300); flush. p isComplete] whileFalse: [d wait]. Transcript show: 'Error output'; cr; show: (p errorUpToEnd). p closeOutput. The netstat takes forever on a Mac, which is why the delays are so long. The On Friday, March 4, 2016, john pfersich <jpfersich@gmail.com> wrote:
You want to use waitForCommand: instead of command:, like
Transcript show: (PipeableOSProcess waitForCommand: 'whoami') output
command: doesn't wait for output and is useful only for commands that don't return anything. It's kind of useless for anything that returns values. I haven't tried this on Pharo 5, I've gotten it to work on Pharo 4.

I once reported a bug for OSProcess on MacOS

Still experience the same problem, is this suppose to be fixed with new OSProcess ?
