Well, there is a built in support for running sh...
Correct, because a POSIX shell is, by specification, part of a unix system; random and exotic bash features are not. In any case, I’d advise against using shell commands in serious projects, especially with untrusted data, the risks are just too great. Is `proc "bash" ["-c", "..."]` not sufficient for your use cases? -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/8838#comment:3 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
