Yes, the command is "%many", however the command delimiter is ANYTHING you
want it to be other than a space [go figure :) ]  The first non-blank after
the "many" command is taken as the delimiter.  VEsoft recommends a percent
sign as it is rarely used in commands (unless you are like Eugene and use
octal constants as run PARM's).  Of course, they also recommend this because
it matches their own "default" prompt character...
