Eric, I clicked on the utility menu and then the color shell item thinking 
that I was using color capable terminal. So the install set up the menu to 
point to the wrong executable. When I get out of win95 (ppp not up yet), I'll 
have to learn how to change the menu choice in fvwm.

Thanks for the clue,
