I never had the following problem when I used SunView. Now when I set up
a OpenWindows Menu Item to fireup elm in a shelltool, I get
unpredictable results. The various things that happened are:
	o	The initial elm menu display was mangled, seemed like
		elm was unable to determine the size of the window.
	o	The menu was blank... header line had the # of messages
		displayed and a Command: sat at the bottom of an empty
		screen.

Has any one been playing with OpenWindows 2.0 and elm? I am running on
an SPARCstation SLC with SunOS 4.1;
