Enable passing executable name/path for mrbayes(), and maybe others. #1

Closed ddiez closed 3 years ago

As per this question asked in Biostars, it would be nice to be able to pass the path to the executable in functions like mrbayes(), so that it can adapt to the installation idiosyncrasies. In particular, currently it seems problematic in Windows (which I haven't tested, but the OP on that Biostars question has).

Yes, you are right! I have just pushed a new version of ips that allows for giving an explicit path via an argument exec in mrbayes. Thanks for pointing this out!
