NAME

       spexec - run commands for macros

SYNOPSIS

       spexec options

DESCRIPTION

       Spexec runs commands for macros under the identity of the invoking user. This is required
       because gspl-pq(1) gspl-xpq(1) gspl-xmpq(1) are set-user programs (to other than "root")
       and there is an inherent security breach in many versions of Unix in that such programs
       cannot divest themselves of traces of the set-user user id.

       This program is only intended for internal use and is not further documented.
