  # This is a rewrite of execline’s runblock.
  # It adds the feature that instead of just
  # executing the block it reads, it can also
  # pass it as argv to given commands.

  # This is going to be added to a future version
  # of execline by skarnet, but for now it’s easier
  # to just dirtily reimplement it in Python.
  #
  # TODO: this was added to recent execline versions,
  # but it doesn’t seem to be a drop-in replacement,
  # if I use execline’s runblock in nix-run-bin above,
  # I get errors like
  # > export: fatal: unable to exec runblock: Success
