SystemCaller
Runs a program or operating system command, and waits for it to exit before continuing the translation.
Parameters
To run a program, the command-line parameter must start with the name of a program (.exe) or batch file (.bat) that is either fully specified or is in the PATH. It can contain additional arguments as well, which are passed as command-line arguments to the program or batch script.
To run multiple operating system commands on Windows, use && to delimit commands. For example:
cd c:\temp && dir *.* && pause
If an Exit Code Attribute is specified, it will be set to the executed program's exit code: usually 0 for success and nonzero for failure.
