Boisy,

Sorry for the double posts, I don't know why they didn't show up till I
replied from another computer.
I even refreshed the lists to check, but anyway....

Yes, it hangs with no shell. I can press reset on the back of the coco and
it might or might not work when trying again.

Also, If any other window is created I am plagued with #184 errors, launched
from TERM or any other window.
Say I run smash from term, (the screen is white on all black because of the
display command in startup) it starts to run, and then errors out with 184,
and the screen changes colors back to the default black on all green.
