-- | safeSpawn bypasses XMonad's 'spawn' command, because 'spawn' passes
-- strings to \/bin\/sh to be interpreted as shell commands. This is
-- often what one wants, but in many cases the passed string will contain
-- shell metacharacters which one does not want interpreted as such (URLs
-- particularly often have shell metacharacters like \'&\' in them). In
-- this case, it is more useful to specify a file or program to be run
-- and a string to give it as an argument so as to bypass the shell and
-- be certain the program will receive the string as you typed it.
-- unsafeSpawn is an alias for XMonad's 'spawn', to remind one that use
-- of it can be, well, unsafe.
-- Examples:
--
-- > , ((modMask, xK_Print), unsafeSpawn "import -window root png:$HOME/xwd-$(date +%s)$$.png")
-- > , ((modMask, xK_d ), safeSpawn "firefox" "")
--
-- Note that the unsafeSpawn example must be unsafe and not safe because
-- it makes use of shell interpretation by relying on @$HOME@ and
-- interpolation, whereas the safeSpawn example can be safe because
-- Firefox doesn't need any arguments if it is just being started.
