executing shell commands in Scala kernel

[gailmargolis76]

How come something like !pwd to check present working directory works in python kernel but not scala kernel? How do i issue shell commands from the notebook whilst using scala kernel?

I have the same the question. Could this be implemented in some way?

In the meantime, using the %%bash cell magic works.

Hi I've just added an example of executing shell commands, the result looks like below

please let us know if that works for you

@jaroslawmalekcodete Thanks. I'd prefer something that works across various kernels (ergo the "!pwd" example) but this works too.
