I want to pass some value to command line command.

for example command is (x 0 0)

I want to pass some value to this command instead of using constant one.

    a=0.0

    b=0.0

    cmd_str=sprintf(nil "x %.1f %.1f", a b)

    axlShell(cmd_str)

    Hi

    Or maybe even better, write directly instead of using axlShell

    printf("x = %.1f %.1f\n" a b)

    There's no need to use the commas. .1 tells to write with just one decimal place and \n is a line bread, use \t for tab

    Best regards

    Ole
