Classic parameter passing misunderstanding.

Out of morbid curiosity, what's the maximum parameter length a command
front-end can prompt and pass to its CPP? I defined the "BODY" parameter
as the full 20,000, and it compiled, but it isn't prompting no 20k.

Prompt the command. Put an ampersand as the first and only character in
the 20k field and press Enter to see more entry space.
