     "call cls.com" calls internal command both in NDOS and command.com
also, so this is not a bug, but a "feature". :(

     Problem is same, as with shells - too many different and often
incompatible ones.

     I agreed - MAKE execution (sometime) isn't completely transparent and
it can't replace the shell: for example, what about conditional execution?
Something like "if exist file set var=path"?

     I wonder why, but (almost) all GNU tools executables are too big and
not always available under DOS (especially 16-bit). :(

     For BC I use MAKER -S (which I also add into config.b).
