public function execute($cmd)

// Some commands fail without sending output to cmdBuff.
// This captures them to a text file in the task dir
$fnErr = $this->taskDir . '_stderr.txt';
$rc=0;$this->cmdBuff=[];

I am unhappy with this kludge.
“$cmd 2>&1” is not good enough. It is not capturing everything.
I hoped maybe some merciful guru here might know the better way…
