  8. A variant of Rob Peck's RunBackground program from disk number 73.
  9. Allows you to start a new CLI program and run it in the background,
  10. and then close the CLI.  This version automatically searches the
  11. command search path to find the program; this code comes from
  12. Carolyn Scheppner's "which" program.  Includes source.
