+Sometimes, you don't mind if the command executed exits with an error,
+or you might want to display a custom message in that case. To that
+end, you can use the `ComX` variant:
+
+`ComX ProgramName Args ExitMessage Alias RefreshRate`
+
+Works like `Com`, but displaying `ExitMessage` (a string) if the
+execution fails. For instance:
+
+ Run ComX "date" ["+\"%a %b %_d %H:%M\""] "N/A" "mydate" 600
+
+will display "N/A" if for some reason the `date` invocation fails.
