#
Use the # command to execute a program that is external to the login script.
The # command executes an external program and waits until it is finished
running before continuing with other login script commands.
This command fails when
 The given directory is invalid
 Proper security rights are lacking
 The executable file cannot be found
 Insufficient workstation memory is available to load the file
IMPORTANT: Use the @ command instead of the # command to run an external
program from a login script if that external program will remain open for any length
of time. Otherwise, the login script will remain open until that external program is
closed. (Login scripts cannot be edited while they are open.)
