What is the status of execl on CP/M ?

Post by jacotton »

I did find some information by digging in the library source, but its unclear if the function is supported, and how to use it if it is supported.
tnx

As far as I know execl() is working: https://github.com/z88dk/z88dk/issues/1627 it's rather an unpleasant interface, but it looks like the more standard execv() is there.

execl() takes arguments as a space separated string whereas execv() takes arguments as a NULL terminated char ** array.
