13 The run command runs program, using the PATH variable to find it. By
14 default, when program has completed, the user is prompted (Press ENTER
15 to continue:), before being returned to FMLI. The argument program is a
16 system executable followed by its options (if any).
17
19 The following options are supported:
20
21 -e If -e is specified, the user is prompted before returning
22 to FMLI only if there is an error condition
23
24
25 -n If -n is specified, the user is never prompted before
26 returning to FMLI (useful for programs like vi, in which
27 the user must do some specific action to exit in the first
28 place).
29
30
31 -s The -s option means "silent", implying that the screen does
32 not have to be repainted when program has completed. The -s
33 option should only be used when program does not write to
34 the terminal. In addition, when -s is used, program cannot
35 be interrupted, even if it recognizes interrupts.
36
37
38 -tstring If -t is specified, string is the name this process has in
39 the pop-up menu generated by the frm-list command.
