Shawn:

Does UD have the UNASSIGNED function?  I can't recall if even UV has it; I've been 
stuck on an Arev site for a while.  Arev has it, and we do what you're wanting to do a 
lot in the fashion of:

SUBROUTINE XYZ(ARG1, ARG2, ARG3)

IF (UNASSIGNED(ARG1)) THEN
  * Not called from another program
  * Get the arguments by parsing the command line
END

Hope this function is available.

Jim

Subject:        [U2] [UD] running a subroutine

Wondering if there is a way to execute a subroutine from the colon
prompt.

Let's say I have a subroutine that is defined as having 2 input args
like:

SUBROUTINE subr.name(arg1,arg2).


I would like to test it from the colon prompt without having to
hard-code the values of arg1/arg2...something like:

:RUN BP subr.name "value.of.arg1" "value.of.arg2"

Is something like this possible?  What I've tried so far hasn't worked.
