Warning. Beckemeyer MT C-Shell will NOT work with Lattice C. Execution of Lattice-C binaries will cause a panic and the ST will lock up, requiring reboot. I have talked with Beckemeyer about this and they recognize the incompatibility and are working with Metacomco to resolve the problem. I have also experience problems with PC/InterComm from Mark of the Unicorn. This involves loss of the curser when I return to the shell. A few times I have gotten ASSERT errors and a stack trace. I am still trying to rediscover what I did so I can forward the information back to Beckemeyer. Beside these two difficulties, the MT C-Shell seems to be a reasonable environment for ST programmers who come from a UNIX background and want something familiar. I have found only a few annoyances and differences (for example ^Z/carriage return for eof instead of ^D).
