- $BUILTIN exec
- $FUNCTION exec_builtin
- $SHORT_DOC exec [ [-] file [redirection ...]]
- Exec FILE, replacing this shell with the specified program.
- If FILE is not specified, the redirections take effect in this
- shell. If the first argument is `-', then place a dash in the
- zeroth arg passed to FILE. This is what login does. If the file
- cannot be exec'ed for some reason, the shell exits, unless the
- shell variable "no_exit_on_failed_exec" exists.
