I'd thought of that, but if I had to code the command, its source would
really have been part of the program. I think I can get away with the 2
CRTDUPOBJs because there's no source coding involved in creating the
objects. If Roger disallows even them (as he might) I'll have to fall back
on:

cpyf a *print

If Roger allows your single C then I'll have to edge it out with a similar
program but instead calling the command I, as I takes up less space on the
line than C.

Another alternative is to code nothing at all. The program is null, and so
is the output. :-)
