Oops, there must be some way to do it. How about:
do script "\"+Cmontly off\""
That will prevent the +C from getting taken off of the montly. It has to
get past the AppleScript compiler, the AppleScript message parser in
Analog, the Analog command line option processing and then finialy the
Analog configuration command parsing. Some combination of quotes must
work but I keep confusing which level uses which quotes.

Dr. Seuss books . . . can be read and enjoyed on several levels. For
example, 'One Fish Two Fish, Red Fish Blue Fish' can be deconstructed
as a searing indictment of the narrow-minded binary counting system.
