Perl has this too: https://metacpan.org/module/Shell https://metacpan.org/module/Shell Written in 1994, by Larry himself!

  CPAN rarely disappoints.

  The module documentation doesn't mention error handling. Perl has no consistent exception system and this makes it very difficult to build reliable programs in the language. The standard library has inconsistent error handling. And CPAN modules like this usually have none at all.

    If you want to build reliable software, don’t use a dynamically typed programming language. Anecdotally, I have written a considerable amount of software in Perl and have very rarely run into a serious reliability issue.
