...and of course obtaining the output in some way I can use it. I'd use it for an ls | grep, but it's good to know for any future issues.
Thanks in advance.
For some tasks, it might be easier (or more robust) to roll your own code - you mention ls | grep, potentially QDir with a filter or a QRegExp might do what you need. For the general case, though, QProcess is absolutely the best way to go.

That's a great observation. I think I'll try that another time but the question in this case was also somewhat oriented for the general case for future uses.Thanks anyway!

A:
QProcess p;
p.start( /* whatever your command is, see the doc for param types */ );
p.waitForFinished(-1);
QString p_stdout = p.readAllStandardOutput();
QString p_stderr = p.readAllStandardError();
