3.2.1 Simple Commands
---------------------
A simple command is the kind of command encountered most often. It's
just a sequence of words separated by `blank's, terminated by one of
the shell's control operators ( Definitions). The first word
generally specifies a command to be executed, with the rest of the
words being that command's arguments.
The return status ( Exit Status) of a simple command is its
exit status as provided by the POSIX 1003.1 `waitpid' function, or
128+N if the command was terminated by signal N.
