Exec() in the dos unit

[ Charset 0 unsupported, skipping... ]
(hmm)
Anyway, don't use unit DOS, it is legacy, but sysutils.executeprocess

My win32 docs, installed as part of 1.9.4 and stamped '1.9' don't seem to show this function. What are the calling conventions?
Does anyone know how much data I can receive on the win32 command line? I recall it was pretty limited under DOS.
