rest
system.rest(number msec)
Put the process to sleep for 'msec' milliseconds.

shellExec
number system.shellExec(table execInfo)
Execute a system command or process when given a SHELLEXECUTEINFO structure [1]. Returns the process ID to the newly started process.
'execInfo' should be a table of key/value pairs of only the values which you want to set. For example:
local data = {lpVerb = 'open', lpFile = 'cmd', lpDirectory = 'C:\\'};
local procId = system.shellExec(data);getClipboard
string system.getClipboard()
Returns the system clipboard data as a string.
setClipboard
boolean system.setClipboard(string data)
Sets the system's clipboard to 'data'. Returns true on success, false on failure.
getActiveCodePage
number system.getActiveCodePage()
Returns the system's current code page as an integer.
getConsoleCodePage
number system.getConsoleCodePage()
Returns the console's current code page as an integer.
setPriority
system.setPriority(string priority)
Change the process's priority. 'priority' should be "high", "low", or "normal" (default)
