/FREE is better at some things, but works against you in others.

| Please excuse my stepping so slowly. I want to be sure I don't
| make invalid
| assumptions since this is not clear to me yet. May we stay in the fixed
| format for this as FREE is just one more possible point of failure for me?
|
| Can my main program be correct and complete as far as a sub procedure is
| concerned if it has only these two lines?:

| D/copy protosrc,pDoCmd
