Dunno about MPE, but that's making excessively heavy weather of it in VMS DCL.
DCL command files support real parameters (P1-P8), so supply them from Quick
with: run command "@myproc val1 val2 ...", and use the symbols P1-P8 within the
procedure. Symbol substitution behaviour can be confusing sometimes, but it's
very powerful, so ask if you can't make it go.

There's also job logicals (use in Quick via [get/set/delete]systemval).
