I'm using EDIT to join two lines [:2CL//]. The first line is
the Execute command and the second line contains parameter
names/values.
Running interactively from the terminal is no problem. How can
an EDIT session be run from a command file? When I attempt it
in a command file - using Execute; the first command causes an
error and then waits for input from the terminal.
P.S. I don't want anything but AMIGA-DOS commands to accomplish
this. Any hints on running EDIT in a "batch like"
environment would be appreciated.

I have never tried this but I would suggest trying to redirect the
input on the edit command. E.G. "EDIT <edit-command-file"
If Amigados is consistent, then this sould look for edit commands
in the file "edit-command-file".
Good Luck,
Steve McAfee

Although I don't know how to do it, it sounds like you need to tell
AmigaDOS to look for command input elsewhere.
