Yup, you need 3.1revD to run the background program I posted--
otherwise, it just acts like it is taking over the screen, and writes
on top of everything,

Sorry about the confusion about the '/bin/sh' -- I meant for you to
save part of my posting in a file (e.g. 'gavinposting') and then use
/bin/sh to run it by typing '/bin/sh gavinfile'-- it would have
automagically compiled and ran the program.
