.SH NAME
.PP
lxc-exec - Execute commands in instances


.SH SYNOPSIS
.PP
\fBlxc exec [:] [flags] [--] \fP


.SH DESCRIPTION
.PP
Description:
  Execute commands in instances

.PP
The command is executed directly using exec, so there is no shell and
  shell patterns (variables, file redirects, ...) won't be understood.
  If you need a shell environment you need to execute the shell
  executable, passing the shell commands as arguments, for example:

.EX
lxc exec <instance> -- sh -c "cd /tmp && pwd"
.EE

.PP
Mode defaults to non-interactive, interactive mode is selected if both stdin AND stdout are terminals (stderr is ignored).
