Currently you can run custom command instead of a shell by using "-c" option:

asciiio -c 'make'

This uses pty and still allows for interactive programs to be properly captured.

For non-interactive scripts we could implement reading from stdin, without need for forking/spawning child process etc:

make | asciiio
