In this way, one can use utilities like SEARCH, DIFFER etc. whilst in the editor. * * * The only mistake is: it doesn't work. I can execute any file with my accessory CHAIN, if I am at desktop level. From a minor program (like Megamax SHELL.PRG) I can start another minor program (like Megamax SHELL.PRG). From a bigger program (like WORDPLUS) I can't even start a very little one: it will bomb... (reboot required). Does anybody see that this should be so? Or have an idea why this could be so? Kind regards Ck
