When you ran pause, did it print the text "press any key to 
continue"?
executeShell captures the output of the program, so I'm guessing 
no. And that is why cls does nothing - its output is captured 
into a string instead of displayed on screen.
spawnShell keeps the output connected unless you ask it not to.
