Also -- do any of you Finder experts know anythign special the finder
does to make itself reloadable on return from the PCT?  I tried
replacing the normal Quit call I use to execute AEPC.SYSTEM with one
that said to leave the caller's ID on the stack so that I could regain
control.  It didn't work:  got a couldn't allocate block memory manager
error on the return.  or was it a couldn't load tool error -- I've had
both; in any case, what should a program do so that when the program it
calls with Quit exits it regains control?  (I'm using TML pascal, so not
doing anything too fancy that I'm aware of with load modules, nor that I
have any control over.

I haven't had any problems with entering and exiting the PCTransporter from
the
Finder or from ProSel.  I have had difficulty using the IIgs control panel and
getting back to the PCT.  After exiting the control panel, I'm left staring at
a blank screen.  Apparently the PCT is still working; I can get PCTools to
make
a disk spin, and I can get the PCT control panel to kick me back into GS/OS. 
You just have to know how to do it "blind".
