>Description:
	jexec does not duplicate the actions of the shell searching 
	for an executable file if the specified file name does 
	not contain a slash ``/'' character.

	Its not a big deal really, but just a bit more convinient
	to do something like:

		jexec 1 ps auxw

	rather than:

		jexec 1 /bin/ps auxw
