Your signature is too big - it almost convinced me not to respond. Please
consider shrinking it.

I open my CLI windows (I'm using ARP's AShell) with:

    AShell "CON:0/0/640/400/AShell_for_Walt" 

in my s:Shell-Boot (called from s:Startup-Sequence). If you want to change
the size of the CLI started by clicking the icon, try adding 
"WINDOW=CON:0/0/640/400/CLI" to the tooltypes (select the icon, then
choose "info" from the workbench menu). I haven't tried it, but 
sys:system/CLI contains the following strings:

execute s:Shell-Startup
WINDOW
STACK
NEWCON:0/50/640/80/AmigaShell
CON:0/50/640/80/New Cli Window
s:Shell-Startup
s:CLI-Startup

I hope this helps.

    None of what I say is what my employer says, ever!
    Am I still confused if I'm not, but only THINK I'm confused?
