Hoepfully you have something good like Bird's Better Bye installed so you don't have to type in the entire pathname when you're ready to restart. Sellam >> The BYE command sucks! i've never seen a more user unfriendly program in my life. it doesnt give a chance to browse any directories or disks. if you dont know the pathname you want to goto, it is useless. i always end up doing pr#6 anyway. any programmer that uses it obviously doesnt use the program. it's always more helpful just to be dropped to a basic prompt.
