Starts the specified command under a newly-allocated controlling pseudo-terminal. The argv and envv lists should be NULL-terminated. The "TERM" environment variable is automatically set to reflect the terminal widget's emulation setting. pty_flags controls logging the session to the specified system log files. Note that G_SPAWN_DO_NOT_REAP_CHILD will always be added to spawn_flags. Note that unless spawn_flags contains G_SPAWN_LEAVE_DESCRIPTORS_OPEN, all file descriptors except stdin/stdout/stderr will be closed before calling exec() in the child. See vte_pty_new(), g_spawn_async() and vte_terminal_watch_child() for more information.
