PSPP-BUG: [bug #25816] HOST command

[Ben Pfaff]

Follow-up Comment #3, bug #25816 (project pspp):

The documentation for the SPSS 16 version of HOST no longer mentions the
possibility of specifying no command.  It also says the following:

>The HOST command runs synchronously. Commands that launch applications
result in the
>suspension of further SPSS processing until the application finishes
execution, unless you
>also specify a time limit (see keyword TIMELIMIT on p. 874). For example, in
Windows
>operating systems, if a file extension is associated with an application,
simply specifying a
>file a name an extension on the command line will launch the associated
application, and no
>further commands will be executed until the application is closed.

That's a much clearer specification than before.
