And Fullscreen CMS?

When a command is parsed by SVC 202 (DMSCSF?) what indication is there
that the command was issued by a program rather than on the command line?
And is this information passed on to DIAG 8?

My dislike of csh intensified when II learned that "#" (again!) introduces a 
line
comment if it appears in a script but is a command operand when it is typed
on the command line.

And bash has a special treatment of "!" on the command line.  I turn it off
in ~/$ENV.  The "!" behavior is not POSIX, yet it persists when I start bash
with the POSIX option.

Grrr...
