- I'm having problems when I bind mail folders to run:
-
- shelltool elm -f $FILE
-
- This does bring up a window and start elm correctly with the right
- folder, but elm thinks that the screen is not the correct size...
- If I type the above line from an existing shelltool (instead of
- double-clicking the mail folder's icon in the file manager), all is
- normal... I believe this has something to do with the file manager
- running it's programs thru the console window... I believe that
- problem should manifest itself in other examples - NOT just in using
- elm... ANY IDEAS?
