The system function is used to issue a command. Execution of your program will not continue until the command has completed.
Library:   stdlib.h
Prototype: int system(const char *cmd);
Syntax:    system( "cat /etc/hosts");
Notes:
	   In Unix systems, the command is passed to "/bin/sh -c" for 
           execution. I do not know what handles the command in DOS systems.
