        !            11: is only allowed when the Shell
        !            12: is taking commands from a file.

        !            15: or more spaces followed by
        !            16: the label_____.
        !            17: If such a line is found, the goto____ command returns.
        !            18: Since the read pointer in the command file points to the
        !            19: line after the label,
        !            20: the effect is to cause the Shell to transfer to the
