Barry, David,

Behaviour in question is documented in :
"User Reference Guide", Version 10.0, Part No. 000-8749, Chapter 1 :
"UniVerse Commands", page 1-27 :
----
Use ? (question mark) at the end of a sentence to save the sentence in the
sentence stack without executing it.
----
If you want a trailing "question mark" character taken in count by the
called program, you need it isolated between double quotation mark : "?"
----
>CT BP HELLO

     HELLO
0001 PRINT "Hello"
0002 GET(ARG.) l.var
0003 PRINT l.var
0004 END

>RUN BP HELLO ?
>.L1
01 RUN BP HELLO
>
>
>RUN BP HELLO "?"
Hello
?
>.L1
01 RUN BP HELLO "?"

Hope this helps,

If the command line contains a trailing '?' character, it appears that

  GET(ARG.,1)FILTER

...returns an empty string. This is probably documented somewhere, right
