I set up program objects' settings so that by double-clicking on them in
the WPS I can launch them in wonderful ways. For example, I can set up
a desktop Program Object to launch a program in a DOS session with such-and-
such memory and window, etc...  Now I can launch this program with these
setting whenever I want by using a mouse on the shell.  But is there any
way to launch these same programs with the same settings from the command
line or from Rexx or from C programming?
Can messages be sent to the shell?
Are the settings saved somewhere accesible?
