Escape and stringify an array of arguments to be executed on the shell

Package Exports

  • shell-escape

This package does not declare an exports field, so the exports above have been automatically detected and optimized by JSPM instead. If any package subpath is missing, it is recommended to post an issue to the original package (shell-escape) to support the "exports" field. If that is not possible, create a JSPM override to customize the exports field for this package.
