Hello,
In D there is a nice function:
auto Tuple!(int,"status",string,"output") executeShell (
 scope const(char)[] command,
 const(string[string]) env = cast(const(string[string]))null,
 Config config = cast(Config)0,
 ulong maxOutput = 18446744073709551615LU,
 scope const(char)[] workDir = null,
 string shellPath = nativeShell()
) @trusted;

It has got 5 optional parameters. For example I want set only the fifth and all other leave with default values.

If it was C/C++ then I would write:
executeShell("my_command", nullptr, 0, 18446744073709551615, nullptr, "my/path");

Long and boring...

What about D? Does it support something like this:
executeShell("my_command", shellPath = "my/path");
or
executeShell("my_command", default, default, default, default, "my/path");

I mean - can I skip some arguments and set only one that I want?
Hm, Python, it seems to me, support this feature.
