I would probably just use Windows redirection: `example.exe >output.txt`;Then read that file.

If you do it like that you would not use backticks but system() as you would not capture any output. But I would not do it like that as in the error-case it is more difficult to determine what went wrong (e.g. the command you call may be able to run, but may not be able to write to the file).	[reply]
