/* The following lines are a horrible kludge. Because terminal emulators

* write commands to a script and then just run that script. However, since
* on some machines, $XDG_RUNTIME_DIR and $TMPDIR are mounted with noexec,
* we cannot directly execute the script either.
*
* Therefore, we run i3-nagbar instead and pass the path to the script in
* the environment variable $_I3_NAGBAR_CMD. i3-nagbar then execs /bin/sh
* with that path in order to run that script.
*
* From a security point of view, i3-nagbar is just an alias to /bin/sh in
* certain circumstances. This should not open any new security issues, I
