Running a source command before launching main command

`/path/to/wrapper /path/to/executable` in front of your argument list.

So, If I follow that, how can I specify the program's argument list?
Because the wrapper takes one argument and that is the program's binary.

Meanwhile I will try to see if I can attach gdb from a console with a PID.
