- This SUBmod allows a program to be loaded and executed with control over stack
- size and retrieval of the AmigaDOS return code, making it superior to ACE's
- SYSTEM command.
-
- Like the SYSTEM command, the input file is taken from the context of the
- calling process (normally the keyboard).
-
- Version 36 or higher of the OS (Wb 2.x/3.x) is required since the dos.library
- RunCommand() function is used.
-
- Note: if you run a program which calls RunProg from a shell, the shell will
- generally close upon completion of the program. The reason for this is still
- unclear to me but I have some ideas. It is unrelated to the use of UnLoadSeg().
- I suspect it's just that I'm misunderstanding the behaviour of RunCommand()
- and I may need to have the parent create a child process.
-
- See RunProg.b and RunProg.h for more details and test.b for an example of how
- to use RunProg.o.
