- FMMT tool would use the "PATH" environment variable for locating
the required GUID tool.
- On Windows-like system, batch file not found in the "PATH" environment
variable when "shell=False".
- This issue required commands to include program extensions or
absolute paths.
- This patch sets "shell=True" to extend the support for batch files,
including scripts in BinWrappers under BaseTools.
- Converted input commands from lists to strings to ensure proper
argument interpretation in POSIX-like shell scripts.

The FMMT python tool is used for firmware files operation, which has
the Fv/FFs-based 'View'&'Add'&'Delete'&'Replace' operation function:
1.Parse a FD(Firmware Device) / FV(Firmware Volume) / FFS(Firmware Files)
2.Add a new FFS into a FV file (both included in a FD file or not)
3.Replace an FFS in a FV file with a new FFS file
4.Delete an FFS in a FV file (both included in a FD file or not)
5.Extract the FFS from a FV file (both included in a FD file or not)
This version of FMMT Python tool does not support PEIM rebase feature,
this feature will be added in future update.
Currently the FMMT C tool is saved in edk2-staging repo, but its
quality and coding style can't meet the Edk2 quality, which is hard to
maintain (Hard/Duplicate Code; Regression bugs; Restrict usage).
The new Python version keeps same functions with origin C version. It
has higher quality and better coding style, and it is much easier to
extend new functions and to maintain.
