<p>Transfers control to the program <code>file</code>. Control returns
to the calling bas-file immediately and the program is executed parallel
and independent to SmallBASIC. File name is case sensitive in Linux.
Enclose the string <code>file</code> with quotation marks to start a
program with parameters.</p>
<p>See <code>run</code> for starting an external program and wait until
program finished execution.</p>
