I have to run the following and similar commands using NSTask.

df -k | grep  /dev/ |awk '{print $1 "\t" $4 "\t" $5 "\t" $6;}'

I got so far.....

NSTask *task;
    task = [[NSTask alloc] init];
    [task setLaunchPath: @"/bin/sh"];
        
    NSArray *arguments;
    arguments = [NSArray arrayWithObjects: @"-c", @"/bin/df -k| /usr/bin/grep 
/dev/ | /usr/bin/awk '{print $1 $4 $5 $6;}'",nil];
        // arguments = [NSArray arrayWithObjects: @"-c", @"/bin/df -k", @"| 
/usr/bin/grep /dev/ | /usr/bin/awk '{print $1 '\t' $4 '\t' $5 '\t' $6;}'",nil];
    NSLog ( @"%@", arguments );
    [task setArguments: arguments];
        
    NSPipe *pipe;
    pipe = [NSPipe pipe];
    [task setStandardOutput: pipe];
    NSFileHandle *file;
    file = [pipe fileHandleForReading];
        
    [task launch];

    [task waitUntilExit];
        
    NSData *data;
    result = [file readDataToEndOfFile];
    NSString *string;
    string = [[NSString alloc] initWithData: result encoding: 
NSUTF8StringEncoding];

I dont want to use a call to a bash script, because of sneaking in bad commands.
But how should I handle this?
Does someone has any advice?
