Hmmmm ... it's stranger than that!  Robotroff + Melt worked fine together
when I executed "melt" from a PopCLI CLI, in which "shell" wasn't running.
Robotroff had been started form the AmigaDOS CLI before I compiled "melt",
and "shell" was running there.

When executed from the AmigaDOS CLI (after having terminated "melt" by
flipping to the "real" screen and clicking on the close gadget for melt,
and after EndCLI'ing the PopCLI), melt "melted", but then the mouse was
"frozen", and I had to re-boot (no Alert or Guru).

I'm using shell v2.05m (Manx version, from Steve Drew), and compiled "melt"
with Manx v3.40a (as received from Manx ... no patches).  Robotroff was
uudecoded from the net.

Ideas, anyone?  (Doncha just *love* trying to debug multiple program
interaction bugs :-) ! )

P.S.  Great mind candy, these toys!  Thanks, Leo!  Thanks, Stephen!
