Running external programs

Can Quest run, or shell, out to an external program, then get a return value from it?
IE:
I'm in a bar, and someone challenges me to a game of Pong...
I play Pong in the external program, win, then return to Quest,
and have the NPC react to how the Pong game went.

Quest can't do graphics that well, (yes, picture, some action) it was not programmed for that...
I would like to be able to run an external program, like pong, then, win or loose, have that score returned to Quest
and have my game respond to it...

Moved to the Quest forum.

You could potentially embed a JavaScript game in it.

I, for one, am keeping an eye on this post so I can use the code, too!
