Scott,

By setting a TERM environment do you mean setting writing a line in some sort
of environment file?  Sure, you can do it that way.

The problem with Shell+ is not the shell really, but OS9 itself.  Same problem
exists in UNIX also, if you want to call it a problem.  Setting a directory
path is only current as long as that shell is running.  Setting the shell's
PATH variable in the startup file works fine as long as that shell is running. 
When it goes away, so does all the parameters for that specific shell.

UNIX environment variables as well as with OSK are not the same....they stay
around.  A pity that OS9/6809 does not have the same thing.

Mark
