Hadn't thought of that. Good point.

Yeah, whoops, that's what I meant.
DB> You have a couple of options. Use the syntax:

OK> I don't believe this syntax will work.
It does. Try it. That was an actual snippet from my J session. (I'd created
the directory structure and a batch file that printed "pshaw").

See postscript for new jtask definitions that use both lpApplicationName and
lpCOmmandLine:
shellB_jtask_ '"C:\amisc\sound\music\Fifties & Sixties\renLen.bat"'
this is a test
(pshaw, you don't mean it)
