Al, over the long term you will be smart to take Nathan's advice.  In
general, applications should use NSTask only after you've searched far and
wide and can't find anything else to do the job.  Spawning processes can be
slow, subject to limitations on maximum running processes, dependent on unix
program installations.  Especially if your app is designed for wide
distribution and usage, you don't want to rely on NSTask.
