:It is even better than that. Set the "script" bit with PROTECT fname +s and
:then you don't even have to invoke execute. (I am not sure whether this is

	And, needless to say, when you type the script command directly the
shell searches your entire path ... so I have a directory called SC: which 
contains script files (all with the 's' bit set) which is in my command
path.  Poof.
