-Here is a example how to run programs with custom input.
- stringArgs=read() -- You input a line of string, and each space makes a argument, such as "arg1 arg2". Argument 1 is "arg1".
- shell.run("myprogram", stringArgs)
- -- runs the program. myprogram would have to be located on the main directory of the computer for this to work.
