This question must have been asked before but unfortunately, I haven't seen
the answer. How may I do the equivalent of Execute("command", 0,0) but get
more meaningful exit status than just TRUE or FALSE that the command executed?
The cli has some way to do it or else failat wouldn't work.

If someone at Commodore would like to enlighten me, I'm willing to implement
whatever's necessary in either C or assembler, I just need to know where the
hooks are.

Please reply to me directly unless you think there is enough general interest.
