There is no general way to do it.
The simplest is to execute a command, and pipe its output to a file descriptor
inside your program. Then copy all the strings into a Gtk_Text widget.

Have a look at the package GNAT.Expect (I can't remember if it was in the
last public release, or if you have to get it from the GVD sources, see
http://libre.act-europe.fr ) to see how to execute the process.
