			# isexe

			Minimal module to check if a file is executable, and a normal file.

			Uses `fs.stat` and tests against the `PATHEXT` environment variable on
			Windows.

			## USAGE

			```javascript
			var isexe = require('isexe')
			isexe('some-file-name', function (err, isExe) {
			if (err) {
			console.error('probably file does not exist or something', err)
			} else if (isExe) {
			console.error('this thing can be run')
			} else {
			console.error('cannot be run')
			}
			})

			// same thing but synchronous, throws errors
			var isExe = isexe.sync('some-file-name')

			// treat errors as just "not executable"
			isexe('maybe-missing-file', { ignoreErrors: true }, callback)
			var isExe = isexe.sync('maybe-missing-file', { ignoreErrors: true })
			```

			## API

			### `isexe(path, [options], [callback])`

			Check if the path is executable. If no callback provided, and a
			global `Promise` object is available, then a Promise will be returned.

			Will raise whatever errors may be raised by `fs.stat`, unless
			`options.ignoreErrors` is set to true.

			### `isexe.sync(path, [options])`

			Same as `isexe` but returns the value and throws any errors raised.

			### Options

			* `ignoreErrors` Treat all errors as "no, this is not executable", but
			don't raise them.
			* `uid` Number to use as the user id
			* `gid` Number to use as the group id
			* `pathExt` List of path extensions to use instead of `PATHEXT`
			environment variable on Windows.
