The command to execute; if no output parameter is given, the active window will be used and if no parameters are given at all, the list of active processes will be displayed. %9Description:%9 Executes the specified command in the background; the process can be accessed by its id or the name you gave it. The output of the process can be redirected to various targets, such as a window, a channel, a nickname or a query. The process identifier must always begin with the '%%' character. For example %%0. If you remove a process with the close parameter, it will only make Irssi detach from it; the process will keep running until it terminates. %9Examples:%9 /EXEC /EXEC ls /EXEC -msg #irssi cat unicorn.txt /EXEC -out cat /etc/passwd | grep $USER | awk -F: '{print $5}' /EXEC -name ssh -nosh -interactive -window ssh staff.irssi.org /EXEC -close mailserver /EXEC -close %%0 %9See also:%9 CAT, CD, ECHO, EVAL
