SYNTAX : ;E FILE TERM
: ;E TERM
RESULTING ARGUMENT: None
FUNCTION : Interprete the characters following the command as a
file name, and execute it as a command-file. Either an
ESC or a RETURN terminates the command.
NOTE 1 : If the file name is empty, the previously executed
command-file is executed again.
If the file name is the name of a directory, a file-
requester will be generated on that directory. The
user-picked file will then be executed as a command-
file.
NOTE 2 : Command interpretation is identical to what happens
when commands are entered interactively:
- a double-ESC ends a command sequence;
- any error terminates a command sequence, upon which
the next command is read from the file;
- CTRL_C and CTRL_G may be used to abort;
- etc.
