+hexec (hook into exec calls)
+
+hexec can be used to hook into exec system calls. It evaluates a user
+defined expression against all hooked exec calls. This expression can
+contain simple path checks (e.g. -path "*/name") and even complex bash
+scripts.
+
+As an example: hexec -name ls -exec echo {} \; bash
+
+This will run a shell, but any time you try to run "ls", you'll run
+"echo" instead. The syntax is similar to "find"; see the man page for
+details.
