Why use QCMDEXEC? Just use a call with a variable name target if you

Using QCMDEXEC seems a very laborious method of doing it.

The menu can call Commands as well as programs and the parameters for the
programs can be stored in the file containing the menu with substitution
variables, so QCMDEXEC just means everything is called using a command
string.
