Just some indentation level saving:

	if (!stream) {
		menu_warn(current_entry, "command '%s' failed to execute", command);
		return;
	}

and the rest starts one level less to the right:

	if (fgets(buffer, sizeof(buffer), stream) != NULL) {
		int i;

		buffer[sizeof(buffer) - 1] = '\0';

and so on...
