Q/KDB: How do you call system commands in a lambda/function

How do you call system commands in a lambda/function?

E.g. I would like to load a q script through .z.ts

Trying .z.ts:{\l myScript.q} does not work. Thanks in advance!

You can use the loading system function in the format

system "l [x]"

For example:

.z.ts:{system "l myscript.q"}

You can find some information about using system commands, like so, here: https://kx.com/blog/kdb-q-insights-scripting-with-q/
