I would very much appreciate having this slice-based Exec! Is this PR being considered? |

Would that be Execv?

Hello,
Really enjoying using
scripthowever there have been a couple of use cases where I have wanted to avoid interpolating theExecargs into a single cmdLIne (and worrying about quoting - which can be complex if dealing with arbitrary input) and have therefore added anExecv(cmd string, args []string)method which passes the cmd and args separately as []string (which is what gets passed to exec.Command anyway so saves re-parsing the command line).Think this would be a useful addition (and be safer for scripts which make need to Exec commands where some of the parameters are untrusted)
