Passes the name of an image to be activated in a child process.
This function is nonreentrant.
Format
#include <unistd.h>
int execv (char *file_spec, char *argv[]);
file_spec
The full file specification of a new image to be activated in the
child process.
argv
An array of pointers to null-terminated character strings.
These strings constitute the argument list available to the new
process. By convention, argv[0] must point to a string that is
the same as the new process filename (or its last component).
argv is terminated by a NULL pointer.
See execl for a description of how the exec functions operate.
