Yes, yes!  I would prefer "implied run" to take an "anyparm" of the
remainder of the command line and supply it as info.  More programs
use INFO= than PARM= (at least in my case) and I would dearly love
to see this functionality.  I wouldn't mind in the least having to
type :RUN... to specify PARM= or other things when necessary.
 
Excellent suggestion Guy, but I doubt it's in the cards since that will
break existing functionality (hey -- an HPvariable to decide which of
the parse rules to follow?).
