`exec'
          exec [-cl] [-a NAME] [COMMAND [ARGUMENTS]]
     If COMMAND is supplied, it replaces the shell without creating a
     new process.  If the `-l' option is supplied, the shell places a
     dash at the beginning of the zeroth arg passed to COMMAND.  This
     is what the `login' program does.  The `-c' option causes COMMAND
     to be executed with an empty environment.  If `-a' is supplied,
     the shell passes NAME as the zeroth argument to COMMAND.  If no
     COMMAND is specified, redirections may be used to affect the
     current shell environment.  If there are no redirection errors, the
     return status is zero; otherwise the return status is non-zero.
