Either there is a bug when using Commando under MPW 2.0.2
or something is wrong with my setup. Here are the details:

When using the Commando interface to a command
the redirection of output to a new file always
causes my Mac to hang (immediately after clicking OK
to the file selection dialog).  Every other option
works fine including redirection to an already
existing file.  If I issue the same command with
redirection to a new file without using the commando
interface everything works as well!

Has anyone else had this same problem?  Any ideas
what the trouble is and how I can correct it?

If this is a problem could someone with Applelink
connections please pass this on via AppleLink to
APPLE.BUGS

Thanks
