		@param aCommand
		Specifies the command to execute. This may be an executable file or a
		document which is registered with an application on a specific platform,

		Specifies a list of space separated parameters. The method does not 
		validate the given parameters, but only passes it as a parameter to the

		@param nFlags
		Specifies different flags to control the execution of this method, for example,
		avoid showing system error messages, in case of failures, etc.
