Is there any way to make the Shell be started by PopCLI instead of the CLI? If you say "popcli 0 shell" then Amiga-Escape does nothing. The same is true if you say "run shell", I guess since the shell needs to have some window passed to it. Optionally, is there some way to start a CLI running a task? So you could start a CLI running the shell, which would also work. Jamie (jwz@spice.cs.cmu.edu)

The way to do it is some like: popcli 0 newcli scriptfile where scriptfile contains: shell c:.login (or whatever) >Optionally, is there some way to start a CLI running a task?

Oops... In a previous article I said popcli newcli scriptfile What I meant was popcli newcli FROM scriptfile OR popcli newcli con:0/0/320/100/whatever scriptfile Sigh... -Matt

The same is Instead of "popcli 0 shell", I use the line "popcli 600 newcli from s:popstart" the file s:popstart contains the line "shell s:.login" Eric Kennedy
