Run a simple arbitrary command from Xwindows
xexec is a program designed to allow quick and easy access for
running simple command lines. For example, let's say you wanted to
start Netscape, but didn't have it on your window manager's menu. Just
run xexec, and type netscape in the text box, press enter, and there
you have it. It is especially useful for allowing access to any
available command via one primary menu entry. One of the nice things
about exec is that it doesn't stay a process after you run a program.
