    Log Message:
    Don't do the special DOSEMU cmdline specifier magic if the cmd starts with '?'

    JavaScript modules are intuitively "native" and have not historically required the "native" option to be set to "yes" in SCFG.

    Log Message:
    Trim white-space from the start of stderr-logged string from xtrns

    ... like the last commit that did this, but do in the other 2 places where stderr output is logged as log messages.
    Also, include the extended program name in the stderr log messages, making it easier to find the output you're looking for.

    Log Message:
    A second pass at: Better native vs. DOS cmd-line detection in cmdstr()

    cmdstr() is often called for non-executable command-lines (e.g. for @include: file name/path arguments), so don't default to native unless a mode value was specified. Hopefully addresses issue reported by bobrob without breaking anything else (again).

    Log Message:
    Correctly support 1,000 arguments to an external

    Previously, more than 999 arguments would overrun a buffer and break
    things.

    Fixes CID 33313

    Log Message:
    Remove lprintf() call from child process of fork() call on *nix

    the info-level debug message "Detaching external process"... as this appears
    to be the cause of background events hanging sometimes, on Linux (at least).

    Log Message:
    Add node interrupt flag checking to *nix external() execution of stdio progs

    and abort the execution of the program when the node is interrupted. This should allow more cases were the node interrupt flag can be used to gracefully disconnect a user running a DOS or native (stdio) program on *nix.

    We have this functionality already in the Windows version of external()
