>I would be interested in others who use MT C Shell...
I use it all the time.  I am using it now.  Since I have programs that run
in the background to do the file transfers and dialing (for PC Pursuit),
and they don't kill the foreground, I start them and do other things on
my ST while waiting.  Very few programs crash, and I have found alternatives
that don't.  I only have a meg (and a LOT of auto folder stuff), so I can't
run a lot of stuff in the background.  I do have things that will allow me
to break out of a program from anywhere (like control-c, but without waiting).
I use Micro C Shell when I am not using MT.
