Fun with AUX:

     OK, I got the RKMs for X-Mas this year, and one of the wonderful new
discoveries I made was ROM-Wack. Seeing the potential usefulness of it, I
borrowed a Volker-Craig VT3100 from the CS dept, and hooked it up to my
A2000 according to the instructions in the RKM. I then invoked Debug off
the 'bench and got - nothing. I tried various combos of dip switches and
Preferences settings, and nothing ever worked. So I tried a Newcli AUX:,
and I got the "New process" message and the CLI prompt on the monitor.
Aha! However, any command I enter on the remote terminal is ignored.
(The cursor just returns to the start of the line) Even stranger, once
Newcli AUX: is attempted, ROM-Wack works!

So:    1) Why do I have to NewCli AUX: to get ROM-Wack to work?
       2) Why won't the remote CLI process my commands?

I'm using full duplex, 9600 baud, 8 bits, 1 stop, no parity on the
terminal.

Also: If I GURU the machine, how can do I find where the program that
caused it is living?

Thanx in advance,
