Jeff, Thanks .. it works like a bought one. One tweak I noticed is that for NT4, the procedure is the same for shutting down the shell, and only slightly different for starting it up. To restart the shell, double-clicking on the desktop didn�t bring up the task manager. This might be NT, or it might be the fact I�ve got Novell running, but in any event, CTRL_ALT_DEL brings up a Novell dialog, one of the choices of which is to run the Task Manager.
