Hi folks,

A couple of questions.

1.  Here's a look at my startup-sequence:

setclock load
runback -3 c/clock digital2=401,0 seconds date
resident cli l:shell-seg system pure
mount newcon:
mount pipe:
runback -2 c/newshell newcon:0/10/550/190/Shell
runback -4 c/mackie R 120 /* I love this program!!!! */
assign t: ram:
loadwb
mymenu
endcli

Now here's my Mymenu.conf:

color 0
menu Dos "Start new task" | CLI c/run df0:c/newshell
menu Dos "Info on tasks" | CLI c/run df0:c/asktask -c
menu Atalk3 "Dial Network" | CLI c/run df0:atalk3 FROM network
menu Atalk3 "Dial Cyber850" | CLI c/run df0:atalk3 FROM cyber
menu Atalk3 "Dial Lehi3b15" | CLI c/run df0:atalk3 FROM att
menu Atalk3 "Dial Outside" | CLI c/run df0:atalk3 FROM outside

Now here's the problem. Everything boots up as usual and I run Atalk
from the mymenu menu option (any of the four).  Then when I exit Atalk
the mymenu menus disappear.  If I type mymenu it says Updating menus ---
ok.  Now it's getting to be a pain in the you know where to type mymenu
all the time.  Anybody know what's going on and is there a way to keep
mymenu from disappearing.

2. Can anybody give me an example of using the pipe.  Say I wanted to
pipe the directory listing to sort.  Thanks.

3. Hope all the Amigos and Amigas in the Bay Area in San Francisco are
alright.  The pictures didn't look too good.  SO what happens with the
BADGE contest?  Take care.

Thanks.
Bin

SPECIAL NEWS REPORT:  Entertainment Tonite revealed their new plan for
increasing the number of people who watch the show.  Correspondent
Jim Johnson today found out that ETonite was responsible for the
spreading of a vicious rumor that the making of the new George Lucas ads
for the "new" Commodore's line of Amiga computers would appear on the
show thus making the million plus Amigoids (as they affectionately call
themselves) tune in to watch the show everynite.  When asked for comment
the official Entertainment Tonite spokeswoman said that "Well, the IBM
ads make even the staunchest IBM'er puke, and Mac owners are wondering
how they fell for that Heli-car crap and how they think that the price
included a heli-car!".  She then said "Amiga was an obvious choice.  Not
only was George Lucas involved but the computer has personality.  The
computer for the creative mind!" as she booted up her Amiga with Falcon.
"Wanna rack up some air time?"
