To run a linked system executable program, enter the following command:
program-name [parameters]
where:
-
program-name
- The name of a system executable file. If the
program-name does not contain an explicit path then the directories specified by the
PATH
(Windows) or
$PATH (UNIX) environment variable are searched. Alternatively, to run the program from its current directory, use the
./program-name syntax.
-
parameters
- Parameters that are required by the program. Each parameter is a string, separated from adjoining parameters by one or more
spaces.
There must be at least one parameter (applies to UNIX environments only).
