Has anyone seen the following behavior in Macterminal? This just happened to me a couple of minutes ago. 1. I decided to record some lines off of the top with "Record lines of Top". 2. A little while later, I selected "Don't record lines off top". At this point, I think I may have accidentaly moved the terminal window slightly. 3. I then select "Clear lines off top" since I don't need that text anymore. I hit "Yes" in the dialog box (somewhere near the edge of the button). 4. At this point, MacTerminal freezed up! The following happened: + The dialog box disappeared + The main "terminal" window remained disabled (ie. no horizontal lines in the "drag" area) + The "Commands" menu title remained inverted + I got a string of beeps + Clicking anywhere on the screen caused a beep with no action to be taken. MacTerminal appeared to be doing exactly what it should do for a dialog box; except that there was no dialog box left (it had disappeared)! This has never happened to me before. I'm using MacTerminal from a Ramdisk, in case this helps. Bob Eby AT&T-ISL pegasus!eby
