I seem to have a hard time using open().

the reference is very vague..
it has example for mac and linux, but nothing for windows.

I tried..

Code:

String[] params = { "notepad.exe" };
open(params); 

for testing, and that works. However, as soon as I use another one with arguments, it doesnt work.

Code:

String[] params = { "ccrypt.exe","-e -K 'password' -f 'filetoencrypt.txt' };
open(params); 

I know the arguments and everything is good because I test it in command-prompt before putting it in the code.

When I do that, nothing happens. Is there an alternative way to either:
a) open an external program or..
b) AES encrypt a .txt file?

thank you.
