Question around MPL.

How do others interface with the OS. I've been using the menucmd DD to call on external programs. Is there a better way?

Looking for some assistance.

I'm working on a new app and I have a very long menucmd DD that is issued to the OS. Under linux it works fine, but under windows it cuts out command. It's as if windows doesn't accept the length of the command.

Can anyone confirm, or have suggestions on an alternative way to work with this on windows?

If you have to you could run things through a batch file in Windows? I would assume you you are utilizing multiple commands
chained together?

It's a bunch of variables concatenated together. I've tried this exact scenario, creating a temporary batch file but it's the same deal. I have to output all the variables together into one line and it gets cut off.

Unless of course there is a way to append text to a file on the same line and not onto a new line?
