Util.Cmd output

I'm attempting to use the Util.Cmd function with programs which output to stdErr.
While LinqPad prints the output, there is nothing returned from the call. How can I capture the stdErr output?

  • Which version of LINQPad?

    When I run the following in LINQPad 6:

    Util.Cmd ("dotnet foo");
    

    it outputs the following:

    Could not execute because the specified command or file was not found.
    Possible reasons for this include:
      * You misspelled a built-in dotnet command.
      * You intended to execute a .NET program, but dotnet-foo does not exist.
      * You intended to run a global tool, but a dotnet-prefixed executable with this name could not be found on the PATH.

    I'm using 2 programs Ffmpeg & Mp4Box which both output to stderr, and get 2 different results.

    LinqPad prints the output from both correctly but MP4Box returns no items whilst ffmpeg returns an error which does seem to contain the output text, or part thereof.

  • The output looks like this. LinqPad 5 only outputs the Dump()
