	Can someone please tell me what is required to make this happen.
Do I need the 1.3 ROMS?  I am running an A2000 with 1.2 ROMS, AmigaDOS 1.3,
1 Meg RAM, 40M hard drive.  I use Matt Dillon's Shell with ConMan and MachII.
Do I need to load the Shell-Seg or Execute with Resident or use the NewShell?
I have tried many different things but gave up after a few tries as I have
little need for scripts currently.  However, it is still highly annoying t
know that it doesn't work.  Thanks for any info.

Jon
