The consumer would not need clojure, he is not suggesting you use some clojure shell command, but rather the clojure.java.shell/sh function which lets you write to stdin (and read stdout) from a shell process you call from your Java program. Also, you will need to invoke sudo with the -S argument so it reads from stdin, and not from a pty. -- Craig Brozefsky <cr...@red-bean.com> Premature reification is the root of all evil -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Clojure" group.
