I figured out that Stuart DOES recognize the Shell default, but doesn't do full path searching, so you have to give the full path name of the program to run in the window (BTW, Shell does the same thing, but Terminal does do path searching) : e.g. % Stuart -Shell '/usr/ucb/vi somefile' I figured this out after I went home last night [Scott, thanx for your reply, I just saw it when I got in this morning, I'll read it in a bit and get back to you]. My request for a complete list of defaults is still open.
