RUN

RUN

Run an external program.

Syntax

      RUN <cCommand>

Arguments

<cCommand> Command to execute.

Description

This command runs an external program. Please make sure that you have enough free memory to be able to run the external program. Do not use it to run Terminate and Stay Resident programs (in case of DOS) since that causes several problems.

Examples

      RUN ( "edit " + cMyTextFile )  // Runs an external editor
      RUN command                    // Gives a DOS shell (DOS only)
