[jboss-as7-dev] Moving through the Filesystem with CLI

[Alexey Loubyansky]

That's tricky. E.g. ps, cd and vi can all be entered on a command line 
but from java they have to be executed differently.

// system command
String[] cmd = {"ps"};
Runtime.getRuntime().exec(cmd);

//shell command
String[] cmd = {"/bin/sh", "-c", "cd mydir"};
// of course it'll affect only the launched shell
Runtime.getRuntime().exec(cmd);

And vi is a terminal application which is even trickier.
