A few of possibilities:

1) REM .. RUN some_command %"with arguments%"

will make everything between %"...%" show up on the calendar.

2) Use two REM commands:
   REM ... RUN command
   REM ... MSG foo

3) An IFTRIG block:
   IFTRIG ...
       REM RUN cmd
       REM MSG foo
   ENDIF

(not recommended, though; it breaks the substitution filter.)

Regards,

David.
