Why is this?  I have run across similar issues from other Linux commands when trying to execute them from a Free Pascal program.  The work around I have found is to hide them in a script. Not pretty, but it works.

This looks dodgy, remove the "" quotes.

ArtProc.Parameters.Add('"' + IntToStr(b) + ',' + IntToStr(e) + 'p"');

Quoting is used by the shell to separate parameters, but with 
Parameters.Add we already have done the separation, so quoting is not 
needed nor supported.
