    Yep, I talked to him about it. He works with some of my old PRO350
    buddies at Applix. However, he didn't indicate that it would be
    anytime soon. Did he give you any time frame?

2100.3How I solved it !CHEOPE::ZABOTMarco Zabot-Adv.Tech.mgr-Turin ACTTue Jan 17 1989 07:1114
    Let me first say that I'm always using the SHELL 2.07m ( i prefere
    it to the new standard shell).
    I solved the problemby modifying the ALIAS EX ( the one I have always
    used to get rid of the window). It was:
    
    ALIAS EX "endcli;quit"
    
    With just one command I close the Shell AND the Cli. Now it is:
    
    ALIAS EX "snipit -q;endlic;quit"
    
    I know, Snipit is gone, but if there is no CLI I don't need it.
    And a new cli ( shell ) will start it again ( .login )
