In an attempt to write a customized SYSTEM.MENU, I found CHAINing
to a SYSTEM.xxx file results in an 'illegal filename' error, which seems
to be returned by some routine in the GETCMD unit.

I need information about getting around this restriction (patches?)
or a copy of the user interface section to GETCMD and an outline of
how it sets up the environment and calls the program.

The P-System (ver 4.1) is being run on a SAGE IV (68k).  I have the sources
from Sage, but not the proprietary P-System sources.  Does anyone
know if the interface section to the units that run the P-System are
copyright restricted or where I might obtain them?

Thanks in advance,
