Paul Grupp's comments are well-taken.  There are a couple of alternatives,
however, which work regardless of the CCP being used:

1) create a $$$.SUB file (on the correct drive) which contains the command
line.  See SUPERSUB.ASM or SUB2.ASM (in the ZCPR2 set) for details.
Note that the option to execute disk-based command files has to be turned
on for ZCPR2.

2) write a CHAIN routine, which loads the FCBs, TBUFF area, and program,
and then chains to it as tho the CCP loaded the program -- the new SYSLIB
will have this facility in two forms:  one for conventional CP/M and
the other for ZCPR2 with the MCL facility; I haven't released the new
SYSLIB yet, but it will probably go out in a month or so (if all goes well)
