EXECUTE

            [SIC\]EXECUTE CommandString

        Execute the command line given as argument. It can be an explicit  char-
        acter  string, a string variable contents, or a mixture of both. For ex-
        ample:

        ! Simple command
        SIC> SIC\EXECUTE EXAMINE

        ! Command with several words
        SIC> SIC\EXECUTE "EXAMINE /GLOBAL"

        ! Command stored in variable
        SIC> DEFINE CHARACTER*32 COMMAND
        SIC> LET COMMAND "EXAMINE /GLOBAL"
        SIC> SIC\EXECUTE 'COMMAND'

        ! Command stored in several variables
        SIC> DEFINE CHARACTER*32 COMMAND OPTION
        SIC> LET COMMAND "EXAMINE"
        SIC> LET OPTION "/GLOBAL"
        SIC> SIC\EXECUTE 'COMMAND'" "'OPTION'

        The error status of the executed command is propagated  to  the  EXECUTE
        command, except for @ (errors raised by @ are lost).
