My Mistook. It's in a customised Slipdial script given to me by Mike Sims. In
it there is the line
oscli "route add default %router"
Unless it reads
oscli "route -e add default %router"
It gives you the details of its latest route add command, whether there are
no sockets yet, if the route already exists, eg if I'd connected once,
disconnected and then logged on again, at the moment of connection "route
already exists" "press space or mouse to continue" appears.
This is a problem only with the Acorn stack AFAIK.
