Here's a simple example:

Code: Select all

PRG = RunProgram("cmd" , "/c echo %computername%" , "", #PB_Program_Open|#PB_Program_Read|#PB_Program_Hide)

If PRG 
  While ProgramRunning(PRG)
    If AvailableProgramOutput(PRG)
      V$ = ReadProgramString(PRG)
      Debug V$ 
    EndIf
  Wend
  
  CloseProgram(PRG) 
EndIf

Hope this helps.
