        _________________________________________________________________
        execle                                                System Call
        Execute a program file.
        _________________________________________________________________


        SYNTAX

        int     execle  (path, arg0, arg1, argn, zero, envp)
        char  * path;
        char  * arg0;
        char  * arg1;
        char  * argn;
        char  * zero;
        char  * envp[];


        PARAMETERS

        path           The pathname of the program file to be executed.


        arg<x>         Each of the arguments arg0, arg1, ..., argn is a
                       pointer to a null-terminated byte string that is
                       to be the x'th argument passed to the new program.


        zero           The explicit argument list arg0, arg1, ..., argn
                       is terminated by a zero-valued argument.


        envp           An array of pointers to the null-terminated byte
                       strings that are to constitute the environment of
                       the new program.  The last entry in the array must
                       be a null pointer.


        DESCRIPTION

        Execle is the variant of execve in which each argument for the
        new program is explicitly listed as an argument, and the
        environment pointer is explicitly given as an argument.

        For further details, see execve.
