when workspace is started in a login or user.ps, all stderr and stdout is lost.(or goes somplace I don't know about right now). I have to start it in a shell to capture the error output from the cmd open and other rules that involve shells. This property is sub-optimal. dan. -- - Yours David +-----------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | ********************************* | | David Dean * FAX * | | Inst. of Reconstructive Plastic Surgery * (212) 340-7190 * | | New York University Medical Center * Include Instructions on * | | 560 First Avenue, Rm.

This will ensure that workspace starts up whenever that user logs on. When workspace is started via this mechanism, these errors go to the console window, which is preferable to having them disappear into hyperspace. Hope this helps. Betsy Zeller betsy@sgi.com
