By "doesn't work" do you mean that you don't see any output from the processes?

First thing to understand is that processes created in this manner do
not get a terminal or console, as documented in the java.lang.Process
class:

 http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.5.0/docs/api/java/lang/Process.html

Instead, the I/O streams are wrapped w/ Java I/O stream objects. In
this case of 'vim' this may quite possibly prevent any useful
interaction with the the process. In the case of 'ls' the key might be
to simply grab the output stream of the process
(Process.getOutputStream) and dump the output to System.out or
wherever else is appropriate for your needs.

Can't test this right now, so this might be way off base.
