Hi, I think I know what happened, I was testing the creation of door.sys.
So I created a menu item that did nothing but Display_File doorsys. Well, in
local mode (max -k), it crashed. But I just got max to run in wfc mode using
the
-pt, and did a local logon that way (alt-k). This time the door.sys was created
and 
max did not crash. So, I'm thinking it was probably a null value when max
tried to read the com port value or something like that.

Back when I compiled maximus, I remember getting the latest code, I think
using cvs to download. Then I followed the quickstart document.

Jim
