-
-@vindex PEX_LAST
-@item PEX_LAST
-This must be set on the last program in the pipeline. In particular,
-it should be set when executing a single program. The standard output
-of the program will be sent to @var{outname}, or, if @var{outname} is
-@code{NULL}, to the standard output of the calling program. This
-should not be set if you want to call @code{pex_read_output}
-(described below). After a call to @code{pex_run} with this bit set,
-@var{pex_run} may no longer be called with the same @var{obj}.

-
-@vindex PEX_BINARY_INPUT
-@vindex PEX_BINARY_OUTPUT
-@item PEX_BINARY_INPUT
-@itemx PEX_BINARY_OUTPUT
-The standard input (output) of the program should be read (written) in
-binary mode rather than text mode. These flags are ignored on systems
-which do not distinguish binary mode and text mode, such as Unix. For

-call using @code{PEX_BINARY_INPUT}.

-
-@var{executable} is the program to execute. @var{argv} is the set of
-arguments to pass to the program; normally @code{@var{argv}[0]} will
-be a copy of @var{executable}.
-
-@var{outname} is used to set the name of the file to use for standard
-output. There are two cases in which no output file will be used: 1)
-if @code{PEX_LAST} is not set in @var{flags}, and @code{PEX_USE_PIPES}
-was set in the call to @code{pex_init}, and the system supports pipes;
-2) if @code{PEX_LAST} is set in @var{flags}, and @var{outname} is
-@code{NULL}. Otherwise the code will use a file to hold standard
-output. If @code{PEX_LAST} is not set, this file is considered to be
-a temporary file, and it will be removed when no longer needed, unless
-@code{PEX_SAVE_TEMPS} was set in the call to @code{pex_init}.
-
-There are two cases to consider when setting the name of the file to
-hold standard output.
-
-First case: @code{PEX_SUFFIX} is set in @var{flags}. In this case
-@var{outname} may not be @code{NULL}. If the @var{tempbase} parameter
-to @code{pex_init} was not @code{NULL}, then the output file name is
-the concatenation of @var{tempbase} and @var{outname}. If
-@var{tempbase} was @code{NULL}, then the output file name is a random
-file name ending in @var{outname}.
-
-Second case: @code{PEX_SUFFIX} was not set in @var{flags}. In this
-case, if @var{outname} is not @code{NULL}, it is used as the output
-file name. If @var{outname} is @code{NULL}, and @var{tempbase} was
-not NULL, the output file name is randomly chosen using
-@var{tempbase}. Otherwise the output file name is chosen completely
-at random.
-
-@var{errname} is the file name to use for standard error output. If
-it is @code{NULL}, standard error is the same as the caller.
-Otherwise, standard error is written to the named file.
-
-On an error return, the code sets @code{*@var{err}} to an @code{errno}
-value, or to 0 if there is no relevant @code{errno}.
