Originally the internally parsing of single argument function is
pretty kludgy (they are reserved words) because PowerPro's original
expression syntax did not use ()s. So I did not like to add more
single argument functions. But I think I can add do.
The do command is not needed with built-in commands.

Recommended syntax is
Shutdown.Reboot("Noconfirm", "Force")
(make a parameter out of each blank-separated string).
You still need Do or eval to run built-in commands in variables.
