CHes, I now have version 4.7.1 which is oil-spill proofed forever -I wrote my
onw malloc() routine to beat OS9 bug. I could explain why Shell+ causes the
problems, but it takes too long at 300 Baud.  Basically, C programs don't like
to be handed extra memory, they'd rather go out and request it themselves.  In
fact, any extra memory you give them at birtth (Shell+ effectively does a #8K
with every command) deducts from the memory they can request later and use --
so Umuse can't read in disk directories to work with files.  --mike k
