Globbing arguments with runCommand

[Chandler Kent]

How can I get the arguments to a command called with runCommand to
perform wildcard expansion?

For example, if I call runCommand("ls", "*/*/Test.*"), runCommand
calls "ls */*/Test.*" instead of correctly calling ls with the
arguments after doing wildcard expansion.

Is there a way to get this behavior using runCommand?

I don't know if there's a better way, but I tried for a long time with
runCommand and Java's own methods for that, and then came up with the
idea of using a shell script as a proxy, since I also wanted to be
able to pass in a single shell command as in Ruby, rather than break
up a command into command and arguments as runCommand requires:

runCommand('shell', command, options)

And in the 'shell' proxy script:

#!/bin/sh
eval $1
