BASIC-09 source can only be RUN from within the BASIC09 interpeter.
Compiled Icode can only RUN binary or Icode modules.
It would be sort of cool if we had a stripped-down BASIC-09 interpeter
engine as a subroutine module, so that a larger program could could
hand it scripts, but that would use up a lot of the program's 64K code
space.
You don't want RUN, you need something like: SHELL "BASIC09 "+script
That has its own issues.
