Filename:     Execute - Direct replacement for AmigaDOS Execute command.

Purpose:      Allows execution of any UNIX script from the AmigaDOS Shell.

              This is a direct replacement of the DOS command Execute.
              From the DOS Shell, you can execute any UNIX shell script.
              It passes the script on to the specified interpreter 
              for execution. Usually, #!/bin/sh, but may be awk, sed,
              perl etc ....

              If the 'S' bit on the script is set, the script can be
              executed by simply typing the script_file_name at the 
              DOS prompt.

              Execute will not interfere with the normal operation of
              Amiga DOS or Arexx scripts.

Requirements: OS 2.04 and up. Any Amiga. 
              Ixemul.library is not required.

Installation: Rename the existing AmigaDOS Execute command. (for safety)
              Copy the new file to the same directory where the original
              Execute resided. (sys:c). This is IMPORTANT because the     
              system depends on Execute for normal system startup.

              The file is residentable.

              Note: This command is implemented as a wedge into the original
              AmigaDOS Execute command and is completely system transparent.
