Chunks of data

Each argument is pushed to stdout seperately, that means there are each chunk of stdout for every one of them.

Example:

const arguments = ['abc\ndef\nghi\njkl', 'foo\nbar']
const {stdout} = require('child_process').spawn('argv-to-list', arguments)
const print = chunk => console.log({chunk: String(chunk)})
stdout.on('data', print)

This is the output:

{ chunk: 'abc\ndef\nghi\njkl\n' }
{ chunk: 'foo\nbar\n' }
