If you type 'LOAD xxxxxx', it WILL go to the disk regardless. If you type
'xxxxxx', it will:

   a) See if the module is in memory... if yes, link to it and execute it.

   b) If NOT a, then see if it lives in the execution directory. If yes,
      load it, link to it, and execute it.

   c) If NOT a AND NOT b, then look for a file by that name in current
      data directory, and treat it as a shell script (i.e. fork another
      shell with it's input redirected to that filename.

See which of the above applies to you. Unless your program explicitly accesses
the disk itself, this is the behavior that will take place.
