|Codes that call other codes (e.g Signum calling its printer routines,
|EasyDraw calling OUTPRINT.PRG) needed shel_fix to work properly. Yes,
|I use shel_fix and it works - except on CRICIT. CRICIT editor will not
|call CRICIT register and vice versa if these codes were launched from
|NeoDesk. They work properly when launched from the standard desktop.
|
|Anyone know why (Dan Wilga, are you out there?)?

Dan Wilga is not on Usenet (or wasn't a few months ago). He can be reached
via e-mail but I can't find his address at the moment - it's in your Neodesk
docs someplace, though.

I don't know about CRICIT launched from Neodesk, but I have been around the
block a few times with shel_fix and Neodesk. I've found that certain auto
programs interfere with shel_fix at times. These programs are G+Plus and 
Universal Item Selector II. (I'm sure there are others). Note, I said at
times. I've seen shel_fix work with some progs and not with others, all in
the same set-up. 

If you use these progs, I find that the following execution order works
with all my applications:

G+Plus
shell_fix
UISII

Hope this helps!
