H there,
 
    I want to know how one can call some external application from squeak.
 
    The fact is that I want to be able to read and parse some contents in
PDF files witha 3.9 squeak running on linux. I've looked the PDFReader but I
cant get access to the text of the pdf with it. So, I've thought in using
the pdftotext that the linux has (it converts any pdf into a text file)
calling it from squeak and then access the text on the plain text file and
parse it.
 
    Any clue?
 
    thanks,
 
Sebastian
