The return value is the exit status of the program as returned by the
"wait" call. To get the actual exit value divide by 256. See also the
exec entry elsewhere in this document.
You can check all the failure possibilities by inspecting "$?"
like this:
$exit_value = $? >> 8;
$signal_num = $? & 127;
$dumped_core = $? & 128;
