Function
Handles list of resident commands. Those commands will be loaded once and then executed from memory. Only pure commands can be made resident, i.e. they must be re-entrant and re-executable. Such commands have the "P" protection flag set. If called without arguments it lists the resident commands.
Inputs
NAME -- The reference name of the resident command. If no name is given the filepart of the file argument is used. FILE -- The file name of the command. It must be an absolute path. REMOVE -- Deactivates a resident command. ADD -- Adds multiple versions of the same command. REPLACE -- If a resident command already exists, it will be replaced. That's the default option. FORCE -- Add commands which don't have the "P" bit set. SYSTEM -- Adds a command to the system resident list. Those commands can't be removed.
