I think whenever we start a new Julia process, we actually should use a shell on Linux/Mac because there might be some startup script that actually modifies the
PATH
that is needed.My understanding is that
createTerminal
does this automatically, so in a way we are just mimic that behavior here. It might be thatcreateTerminal
also uses a shell on Windows, but not sure. But in any case, it seems to me that on Windows we generally don't want to add that extra overhead.
