Finaly, someone else with this same problem !  Are'nt any of you 
mini-hackers out there trying to multitask one the Amiga?  I posted a similar
message asking for help and examples over a week ago;  I got one reply from
Matt about starting processes, not what I want to do, and another about
a bug in manx from Milan ZOFKA in Geneva.  Whats up?  Has anyone in 
Weschester had a look at this?  Is it manx or 1.2 or me?  Dale do you have
any ideas?

If you have not seen the metacomco shell, it might be nice at some point
in the future, but seems to have lots of bugs at this point.  And you have
to love those dips at metacomco, IT IS NOT COMPATABLE with CLI!  I mean 
it must have some differnt structures so tha like manx make, that try 
and spawn of other processes, break!

HAL hears the Amiga9000 series is not selling. "Please explain Dave. Why 
aren't Amiga9000's selling?" Bowman hesitates, "You aren't IBM compatible."
