What Libraries and Headers would be good to use to wrap an bash script?
I am thinking to try learning C++ once more.
Decided that writing small useful programs would be a better path than trying to add features complex programs others have written.
There is an MSys2 (Cygwin like enviroment) wx-config script that would be better if it was wrapped by an C++ command line program.
wx-config is something like pkg-config for just the C++ wxWidgets library.
And, the command line options are not exactly like what the CodeLite IDE wants under the Windows OS.
Therefore, I need to add a few options and pass some options onto the MSys2 bash call of the wx-config script.
I wish to use libraries/classes that are standard in C++ or Boost.
I see two types of libraries/classes I need suggests of which ones to research.
1. Ones to handle command line options
I have foundby using web search.Code:boost::program_options
2. Ones to call external command line programs and record the response from the program.
I have failed to find any class that does something like C's system or exec functions.
