BUFFER can also have the form (REAL-BUFFER STDERR-FILE); in that case,
REAL-BUFFER says what to do with standard output, as above,
while STDERR-FILE says what to do with standard error in the child.
Otherwise it waits for PROGRAM to terminate and returns a numeric exit status

Args are NAME BUFFER PROGRAM &rest PROGRAM-ARGS
NAME is name for process. It is modified if necessary to make it unique.
BUFFER is the buffer or (buffer-name) to associate with the process.
- Process output goes at end of that buffer, unless you specify
- an output stream or filter function to handle the output.
- BUFFER may be also nil, meaning that this process is not associated
- with any buffer

Third arg is program file name. It is searched for as in the shell.
Remaining arguments are strings to give program as arguments.
