15  * !!!
16  * All arguments are nul terminated as well as having an associated length.
17  * The argument vector is NOT necessarily NULL terminated.  The proper way
18  * to check the number of arguments is to use the argc value in the EXCMDARG
19  * structure or to walk the array until an ARGS structure with a length of 0
20  * is found.
