If you want to execute a task in its own process, use the standard
Unix exec or system commands.
Do not use system(3) or popen(3). They will invoke a task inside the
user's shell -- whatever they have set it to -- and you will be at the
mercy of the user's PATH, the quoting conventions unique to the shell
they've chosen, and so on.
Either use LaunchServices or NSWorkspace for applications, or fork/
exec or NSTask for command-line tools.
