I'm not sure if this is right, since apparently they've removed the "shell" command from the Workspace under 3.0 and I don't have a 2.0 machine handy to test it, but, the workspace may be getting its info from the defaults database. I know it maintains an "applicationspath" variable, which says where your NeXT apps live, this may or may not be the same thing. To look at your defaults, you can do a "dread" but I can't remember the syntax of that, or get DefaultsMgr from the archives. Anyone know why they took the shell out of 3.0? -- dan pritts consultant/system administrator dan.pritts@umich.edu um itd/css unix support group 313/998-6265
