Boot an interactive subshell from node. Useful for custom command-line
environments.
## Usage ##
[](https://nodei.co/npm/subshell)
### `subshell([cwd], [env], [exit])` ###
Spawns a subshell appropriate for your system, and wires up node's stdio
to the shell. Optionally, you can also pass:
* A `cwd` string, for the directory to run your shell from.
* An `env` object, to override the shell's environment variables.
* An `exit` callback with the signature `(err, code)`, called when the shell
closes.
