It may just be because it's late, or because I'm just missing something.

 With the 2.0 CLI comes Local environment variables.  I have made use of
these within my programs, as there are a few cases (Usernames/etc) where it
is best to have these variables local to the program, rather than the global
ENV: one.

  When I do a NewShell, I can check that the new process inherited all the
settings of the old shell (A copy is made).

  However, I find programs that were run with Execute() do not seem to inherit
the environment variables.  Is there something I'm doing wrong.  Must I make
use of the new system command in 2.0 in order to transfer these local 
variables?  Should I be looking elsewhere for the problem (I'll have to be
doing some more testing, but so far it seems to be Execute() that is causing
my problems)

Any comments/etc appreciated.
