Executes commands on the local operating system. These are executed as if typed in from the shell, or command line.
Each of the words
values is treated as a single
(possibly quoted) word in a shell command.
The first argument is the filename
(either a full pathname, or the name of a file on the current path)
of an executable file.
These values can be numeric, or strings, or something else, and
are converted automatically to string values.
