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 !seismo!andrew.cmu.edu!df1b df1b+@andrew.cmu.edu (arpa) r750df1b@cmccvb (bitnet)
