<$.EXECUTE option>

── $.EXECUTE ──<file name>─────────────────────────────────────────────┤

The $.EXECUTE option tells the PATCH utility to automatically start a specified program if no fatal errors are discovered. This option uses the $* records in the same way the $.COMPILE option does, except that no file equation occurs. The terminal END JOB control statement is supplied by the PATCH utility. EXECUTE and COMPILE cannot be TRUE at the same time.
