What is it?
-----------

[](#what-is-it)

It's a beautiful way to use powerful Linux/Unix tools in PHP. Easily and logically pipe commands together, capture errors as PHP Exceptions and use a simple yet powerful syntax. Works with any command line tool automagically.

Features
--------

[](#features)

- Flexible and sexy syntax.
- Exceptions are thrown if the executable returns an error.
- Paths to binaries are automatically resolved.
- All arguments are properly escaped.
- Callback functions for streaming output.

Examples
