- I found this to be true as well. So far, the only thing I have found
- that works is to have each shell start up with "NewShell FROM
- s:Shell-Startup", which has commands to set the stack size and path. I
- cannot figure out how to set the default path and stack size from
- anywhere else.
-
- I also noticed that any program started from WB's Execute menu item will
- come up in the SYS:WBstartup directory. Just before the "LoadWB"
- command I added a "cd Work:" to switch to my user partition, but WB must
- have changed it back. I hate that.
