I'm trying to set up a remote terminal to work through /t2 on a CoCo III, 128K,
level II system.  I have the following commands in my /dd/startup file:

	xmode /t2 baud=7
	date t>/t2
	ex shell i=/t2

Whenever I do this though the original shell doesn't go away.  It waits for
me to send it a signal, then it wakes back up.  I though the ex should've taken
care of that!  I tried ex shell i=/t2& first but that didn't work right.
I want to original shell to die, go away, and give up its memory.  Things
work fine if I use

	xmode /t2 baud=7
	date t>/t2
	shell i=/t2&

and type ex on the CoCo after startup is done running.  It seems whenever I
stick ex in a shell script that it terminates the shell script, but not
the shell?

If anyone out ther has successfully set up a remote terminal this way,
please leave me know.  I don't want to have to type ANYTHING (exept DOS) on
the CoCo.


Thanks,

Dave Fulmer
