I've found 2 instances in which SHADOW always crashes.
i) Use GULAM's rx to receive some files. THen invoke SHADOW at some
point later. Two bombs (i think).
ii) Use UW.prg. Then invoke SHADOW while in UW.prg or at some point
later. Same two bombs.
And doing a warm-boot will not revive SHADOW. It will still crash
until a cold boot is done. Has anyone else been hit by this? I'm using
version 1.01 with a monchrome and a 20Meg Supra.
----------------------------------------------
I've used BDT Micro-Cshell and AnsiTerm. Both are good programs.
However, there're quite a few public domain programs out now which are equally
good (if not better) when compared to SOME of BDT's programs. GULAM and
Uniterm comes to mind. I think this might be one reason why sales for BDT has
declined.

OK, the bug you are experiencing, we believe, is caused when a program performs
an RSCONF call with a value of -1 for the baud rate (often used for break, or
setting flow control). To get around this, simply set the baud rate to a valid
value after you encounter this problem (or before you access SHADOW).
Version 1.02 will fix this problem, and have other delightful enhancements.
