/**
 * \brief Run a shell level command.
 *
 * This is essentially the UNIX <i>system()</i> call, except for the 
 * signal handling. During the call, user generated signals (intr, quit)
 * for the parent are ignored, but allowed for the child. Parent
 * signals are reset upon completion.<br>
 *
 * This routine is useful for menu type programs that need to run
 * external commands and allow these commands to be interrupted by
 * the user without killing the menu itself.<br>
 *
 * <b>Note:</b> if you want the signal settings to be the same for the
 * parent and the command being run, set them yourself and use
 * the UNIX <i>system()</i> call instead.
 *
 * \param[in] command
 * \return -1 on error
 * \return status on success
