AIUI, the problem is made worse by the fact that - if you log in at the gui - the shell doesn't get invoked AT ALL until it's needed to run the command, at which point it's too late. Catch 22 - the shell gets run after the command is called, but the command needs the shell running first so the command-line knows where to find the command! Cheers, Wol
