The label will be passed via a DCL qualifier and retrieved by the
program via a call to CLI$GET_VALUE.

In the CLD there will be an additional line, something like
(from memory, sorry) :

qualifier END, type = ? value(required)

Still have to investigate which type to use (must look at the READ
command definition and copy it) and test around to see how errors
like undefined label specified are handled.

But many thanks !
