Hello, netlanders!

	Can one running VP/ix (let's say 1.0.6 for instance), start
	DOS Batch session? As you know, VP/ix locks up the terminal
	it was activated from - so even if you do have virtual con-	
	soles, it doesn't help a lot. But is it possible to run DOS
	tasks in the background, somehow invoking VP/ix (or whatever
	can be better)?

	Please, no X-Windows. For now it's not a solution for me.

	Thank you.
