=head1 NAME

HackaMol::Roles::ExeRole -

=head1 VERSION

version 0.053

=head1 DESCRIPTION

This role adds executables/commands for running external programs. This is still a work in progress, and it will
probably change (suggestions and help very much welcome!).  The goal is to reduce the amount code required for
building interfaces to external programs to be run on inputs to generate output in some directory that may be
temporary... or not.  Of course, exes do all sorts of things where other files may be written. Requirements (e.g. a
method that tests functionality) for interfaces are still under development. Considering the trickiness of this
sort of abstraction, it will cowardly left to the extensions to figure out. Recommendation: Capture::Tiny

=head1 METHODS

=head2 exists_exe

return 1 if exe exists, carp warning and return 0 if exe does not exist

=head1 ATTRIBUTES

=head2 command

isa Str that is rw

to be constructed from exe, exe_endops, in_fn, out_fn, etc. Then run and
captured, which is left to scripts/interfaces

=head2 exe

isa Str that is rw

the program to be run.  $self->command($self->exe . " < " . $self->in_fn . " > " . $self->out_fn);

=head2 exe_endops

isa Str that is rw

options to be catenated to the end of the exe.  For those command line tools that use options after input filename
