nepmd 1.22: command "key" does not properly work when invoked from commandline

[erdmann]

My inention is to open a file from a command line, select a specific line and "mark" that line by invoking alt-L (which marks the current line).

I use this to open file "somefile.cod", select line 1234 and mark the line:

epm.exe "somefile.cod" 'mc /postme 1234 /postme key 1 a+l'

This works fine with the original epm.exe but fails with nepmd. I'd prefer if nepmd supported all the original epm commands as they were specified to work.
