  Matt, if you're reading this, here's one for the FAQ:

  Question: Some programs I run have two cursors and sometimes characters
    I type don't get sent to the program.  When I quit the program, the
    characters show up on the command line! What's wrong?

  Answer: You need to set the auxType of the program in question to $DC00.
    Use the chtyp command:
     chtyp -a \$dc00 programname
    Note the '\' character-it must be there.
