Although I didn't think of using a shell script, I ran into the same
problem when I wrote a simple program to open a window using pad calls.
Sometimes it worked and sometimes it didn't.  The problem is in
case-sensitivity, Aegis doesn't recognize case whereas Unix does.
The response from Apollo support was that this is a bug which should
be fixed with SR10 which is to become more Unix-like.
