This has me baffled. Some of the library routines calls from ARexx don't seem to be working on my machine. In fact they're causing system crashes! Something as simple as: 9.> rx "say showdir('ram:')" ;from rexxsupport.library or 9.> rx "say getenv(username)" ;from rexxarplib.library Results in a software failure. Sometimes, before the crash, I see "Invalid Packet" messages (1-2 of them). I don't understand. I'm running ARexx 1.15, WShell 37.5 (NewWSH) and Kickstart version 37.175 (from disk, A3000), Workbench version 38.35. Am I missing something? No doubt, eh? 🙂 BTW, is there any way to stop FComp from leaving its startup window on the Workbench? (when it's started from the WBStartup drawer) Thanks, Bill
