I invoke it from STerm rather than from the menu system, and have a shell on both the device itself and the hyperterminal session from the PC. Now I need to find the command to output to the TV from the command line, so I can do PIP on the flat screen TV with the main display as the terminal shell and the inset display as the graphics output - neat dev environment and time to start coding! This is going to be *so* much nicer to write for than the GP32 - for which to be honest I wrote one program (tailgunner) then gave up. Way too much hassle! Now if only we could run a filing system over the serial at the same time as a shell... hmmm, didn't I see somewhere that someone had got ppp going?
