add optional support to replace argv[0] (fixes #472) #627

Open mattieb opened 10 months ago

Fixes #472.

With this, specifying the new property "argv0" in options will replace argv[0] with a custom string.

This is useful, for example, when starting a login shell:

const pty = spawn('/bin/zsh', [], {
  argv0: '-zsh'
});

If this property is omitted, the file parameter is used instead, which is identical to existing behavior.

Hey y’all, let me know if anything’s missing, but I’ve been using this for quite some time now day-to-day and haven’t seen any issues.
