<-- This PoC is cross platform : On Windows this example creates the file -->
<-- c:\booom.bat and launches it (opens a dos box with a dir command). On -->
<-- Linux (tested Fedora Core) and MacOSX the example creates the file -->
<-- ~/booom.txt or /booom.txt. Depending on caching the the script might -->
<-- run twice in some cases (this will create an additional booom-1.txt). -->
