Hi,
I'm writing a Java GUI for the text parsing program called "Apple Pie
Parser", the program was written in Unix C and have an executable file
(console) for windows. My program's being written in Windows, so I
tried to called the Runtime exec() method to get that .exe file to run
and pass my input into it. But it seems like i couldn't call it, cuz
nothing came up, and even when i tested, tried to call "cmd.exe",
nothing happened either. I'm wondering if there's anything to solve
this.

Thanks.
