Doing so [placing GULAM in the auto folder prevents the use of any
GEM programs.  Use, perhaps, one of the
so called GEM autostarters.  That would place you in Med rez too.

Try:
arc a arc_it_all '*.*'
arc uses its own wildcarding routines to surpass the ST's command line 
limitations.  Alas, it uses the old style wildcards (as opposed to UNIX's
regular expressions) so you have to explicitly include to dot.  Otherwise
you only are including files without the three character (or less) 
extension.

The one I got was to use Mark Williams C.
