Line 23:
The idea was to invoke the language - in this case BASIC, from a command shell outside of the language, together with one line of text which would become the program for the language to run. The basic example seems to be invoking a command shell and another program from within the BASIC shell. --[[User:Paddy3118|Paddy3118]] 06:23, 26 January 2010 (UTC)
: I guess I misunderstood the task. There's no standard way to do ''that'' for BASIC (many implementations don't have a non-interactive mode, or else can't take their input from stdin). I'll remove it. -- [[User:Eriksiers|Eriksiers]] 00:51, 28 January 2010 (UTC)
 
:: I think I also misinterpreted the task. When I read SPECIFY and EXECUTE, I understood that to mean to input a program for a particular language and then run it from the (shell) command line. If you had said, "show how to execute a program in a language from a shell (command line or "prompt") ...", and the point here is that it shouldn't matter if the program is 45,000 statements long (or only 3), I would've assumed you wanted example(s) to show the syntax of how to run a program (for a particular language). -- [[User:Gerard Schildberger|Gerard Schildberger]] 18:49, 23 March 2012 (UTC)
