is this the right module for this code?

I am not sure whether this is the right module for this piece of code. But I am looking for your advice.

On Windows I run into trouble because run() does not work as I expected it from my linux boxes.

Example: on the windows shell you can invoke prove ..... and it works, but with run() you can't because it in fact it is a prove.bat that you're invoking.

So it is hard to write platform independend code. (e.g. skaji/mi6#40) This piece is stolen from zef.

my @run-invoke = BEGIN $*DISTRO.is-win ?? <cmd.exe /x/d/c>.Slip !! '';
sub zrun(*@_, *%_) is export { run (|@run-invoke, |@_).grep(*.?chars), |%_ }

Sounds like a good fit imho. It's not a shell command on linux, but from the looks of it it seems to be one on windows :)

If it makes the module more useful then I'm all for it!
