  I can, btw, confirm, that this did the trick for me with interactive.
I'm curious now -- what section of the manual did I NOT read that would
have told me this?

  From what I've heard, one CAN'T turn off the C2 stuff in SCO. Is this

  Does the accounting stuff shut off if you run out of space on the
