32  *  These routines are based on the standard UNIX stdio popen/pclose
33  *  routines. This version takes an argv[][] argument instead of a string
34  *  to be passed to the shell. The routine execvp() is used to call the
35  *  program, hence the name popenvp() and the argument types.
36  *
37  *  This routine avoids an extra shell completely, along with not having
38  *  to worry about quoting conventions in strings that have spaces,
39  *  quotes, etc.
