Well, it seems that I don't fully understand the concept of Tags. I am 
trying to make use of the 2.0 System() command, but my knowledge of Tags is
presenting me with a problem.

Here's a code sample.  What obvious thing am I doing wrong ;-)

#include <stdio.h>
#include <dos/dostags.h>
#include <clib/dos_protos.h>

main(argc, argv)
	int argc;
	char *argv[];

{
        FILE *outfile,*infile;
        int rc;

        if (!(outfile = fopen("tempout","w"))) {
             printf("error opening outfile\n");
             exit(1);
        }

        if (!(infile = fopen("tempin","r"))) {
             printf("error opening infile\n");
             fclose(outfile);
             exit(1);
        }
            
        rc = System(argv[1],
              (
              SYS_Input, infile,
              SYS_Output, outfile,
              SYS_Asynch, FALSE,    
              TAG_DONE
              )
            );


        printf("%d from %s\n",rc,argv[1]);
        fclose(infile);
        fclose(outfile);
}
