 TFW is doing something for me that I wish I could stop.
 I am using it as a telnet client.
 I have scripts setup such that after loading TFW I launch one script
 that will call several BBS's listed in the phone book and run a script
 associated with each listing in the phone book.  This makes a
 completely unattended mail run to several BBS's.  It works fine.  The
 problem is that if I put it in the background and work on something
 else in the foreground every time it starts to dial a new BBS and every
 time it starts to download a mail packet it comes back to the
 foreground.  I want it to stay in the background so I can work on
 something else while it is making the mail run.
 Any suggestions?
