[java] Slightly OT: Starting non-java apps with Java?

How can I call a non-java application from within a Java-application? I am not interested in retrieving the result of the other app''s execution in anyway, but only in it''s "side-effects". I had thought this would be a simple question to answer simply by browsing the ''net a little, but that didn''t pan out. I''d really appreciate it if some of you guys could help me out here, despite it being slightly off-topic. -Neophyte ~Death awaits you all, with nasty, big, pointy teeth~
