Expand description

Execute a new program in current process

Replaces the current process image with a new program. This function does not return on success - the new program begins execution.

Supports shebang (#!) scripts: if the file starts with #!, the interpreter specified on the shebang line is executed instead, with the script path prepended to the argument list. Also supports PATH search – if the path does not start with /, standard directories are searched.
