Description

Issue body actions

Node version (or tell us if you're using electron or some other framework):

7.7.1 (and also 7.5.0)

ShellJS version (the most recent version/Github branch you see the bug on):

0.7.6

Operating system:

Windows 10 x64, Ubuntu 16.04.2 x64

Description of the bug:

docker run command can't be executed with exec(). (May also affect other programs.)

I'm executing this script (via node script.js):

require('shelljs/global');
config.fatal = true;
exec('docker run --rm -ti hello-world');

Depending on the operating system and terminal used, I'm getting different errors:

Windows 10 & Cmder:

The handle is invalid.

Running the same command directly on the command line or even through child_process.spawn() works, though:

const child_process = require('child_process');
child_process.spawnSync('docker', [ 'run', '--rm', '-ti', 'hello-world' ], {
	stdio: 'inherit'
});
