def indra::util::llsubprocess::run	(		command,
			args = None,
			data = None,
			timeout = None
	)

@brief Run command with arguments

This is it. This is the function I want to run all the time when doing
subprocces, but end up copying the code everywhere. none of the
standard commands are secure and provide a way to specify input, get
all the output, and get the result.
@param command A string specifying a process to launch.
@param args Arguments to be passed to command. Must be list, tuple or None.
@param data input to feed to the command.
@param timeout Maximum number of many seconds to run.
@return Returns (result, stdout, stderr) from process.
