I half thought it might be the bash shell crashing, but I have no idea where
to look for the cause, except that execution of the mj_shell is the only
thing that causes it (so far, anyway).  I'm not much of a code hacker (read:
not at all), so it just seems logical to me that mj_shell must be crashing
it.  I was hoping that the error was familiar to someone who uses bash so
that they might tell me what I could do.  The command I am running is just
the mj_shell (". mj_shell" from the /home/majordom/bin directory where the
file is installed) so that I can get the interactive shell...  Any help or
ideas where I might go for help would be appreciated.

Thank you for responding, regardless of the delay.
