(I ported that shell to OS/2)

I have already noticed that too if running the shell in a PM Window. If
the shell is running fullscreen, everything works fine.
At the moment I could only suggest running it fullscreen ..

If anyone has an idea what PM does with it's child sessions he could
send me a note ..
