I've had no trouble with Posix shell access from Reflection 1/Windows (version 4.2) loaded on my office PC. Recently, I tried accessing the shell from a notebook PC running Reflection 1/DOS (version 4.2). The shell prompt was presented as high-bit ASCII (line draw) characters. I could type 'exit' and get back to the MPE prompt but never could get a readable shell prompt. Does anyone know why this happens and know how to fix it? Thanks for any help or suggestions.
