Avoid building and executing scripts if there's API. I hate tearing people a new one because they build a script and incorrectly escape special characters. E.g. imagine the path contained a space, or a quote character, all of which are valid. Heck, you can even have return characters in filenames, though they're not as easy to get these days.
