-<h3> Executable search and execution, and environment </h3>

-<code> void execvep_loose (char const *file, char const *const *argv, char const *const *envp, char const *path) </code> <br />
-Executes into the executable file at <em>file</em>, with the command line
-set to <em>argv</em> and the environment set to <em>envp</em>.
-If <em>file</em> is not an absolute path, it is searched in the
-<em>path</em> string, which must contain a colon-separated list of
-search directories such as the contents of the PATH environment variable.
-The function returns if it fails, and sets errno to the most relevant
-error that happened.
-</p>
-
-<p>
-<code> void execvep (char const *file, char const *const *argv, char const *const *envp, char const *path) </code> <br />
-Like <tt>execvep_loose()</tt>, but if <em>file</em> contains a slash,
-it is treated as an absolute path.
-</p>
-
-<p>
-<code> void pathexec_run (char const *file, char const *const *argv, char const *const *envp) </code> <br />
-Performs <tt>execvep(file, argv, envp, path)</tt>, <em>path</em> being the
-contents of the PATH environment variable. If PATH is not set, <em>path</em>
-is set to the value given to the <tt>--with-default-path</tt> option of the
-skalibs' <tt>./configure</tt> script, or to <tt>/usr/bin:/bin</tt> by default.
-The function returns if it fails, and sets errno appropriately.

- <tt>pathexec_run()</tt> is the standard skalibs API to perform an
-<tt>exec</tt> call with a path search. It is recommended that you use
-it instead of the Single Unix
-<a href="https://www.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/9699919799/functions/execvp.html">execvp()</a> or

-functions, because <tt>execvp</tt> and <tt>execlp</tt> default to execution of
-the <tt>/bin/sh</tt> interpreter with <em>file</em> as an argument if they
-cannot find a suitable executable <em>file</em>, and this is:
-</p>
-
-<ol>
- <li> a security risk, </li>
- <li> probably not what you want. </li>
-</ol>
-
-<p>
- <tt>execvep()</tt> and <tt>pathexec_run()</tt> just fail with ENOENT
-when they cannot find a <em>file</em> to exec into, which is the
-sensible behaviour.

-<code> void pathexec0_run (char const *const *argv, char const *const *envp) </code> <br />
-Performs <tt>pathexec_run(argv[0], argv, envp)</tt>. If <em>argv</em> is empty, i.e.
-<em>argv</em>[0] is null, the process exits 0 instead. Rationale: executing
-the empty command line should amount to executing <tt>true</tt>, i.e.
-simply exiting 0.

-<p>
-<code> void pathexec_r_name (char const *file, char const *const *argv, char const *const *envp, size_t envlen, char const *modifs, size_t modiflen) </code> <br />
-Alters <em>envp</em> (which does not have to be NULL-terminated, but the
-number <em>envlen</em> of elements must be provided) with the modifier
-string <em>modifs</em> of length <em>modiflen</em>, then performs
-<tt>pathexec_run(file, argv, altered-envp)</tt>.
-</p>
-
-<p>
-<code> void pathexec_r (char const *const *argv, char const *const *envp, size_t envlen, char const *modifs, size_t modiflen) </code> <br />
-Same as <tt>pathexec_r_name</tt>, except that the <em>file</em> argument is read from <em>argv</em>[0].
-</p>
-
-<p>
-<code> int pathexec_env (char const *var, char const *value) </code> <br />
-Adds the "add variable <em>var</em> with value <em>value</em>" instruction
-(if <em>value</em> is not null) or the "unset <em>var</em>" instruction
-(if <em>value</em> is null) to a static hidden modifier string, used by the
-following three functions.
-Returns 1 if it succeeds and 0 (and sets errno) if it fails.

-<p>
-<code> void pathexec_fromenv (char const *const *argv, char const *const *envp, size_t envlen) </code> <br />
-Performs <tt>pathexec_r()</tt> with the given arguments and the hidden modifier
-string.
-</p>
-
-<p>
-<code> void pathexec (char const *const *argv) </code> <br />
-Executes into the <em>argv</em> command line, with the current environment
-modified by the hidden modifier string.
-</p>
-
-<p>
-<code> void pathexec0 (char const *const *argv) </code> <br />
-Executes into the <em>argv</em> command line, with the current environment
-modified by the hidden modifier string. If this command line is empty,
-exit 0 instead.

- Those functions provide the same functionality as the non-x-prefixed versions,
-but if the execution fails (i.e. the process cannot exec into a new program), then
-the process dies with a 111 exit code and an error message on stderr.

- The <a href="env.html">env</a> library interface provides additional functions
-to manipulate modifier strings and environments.
