System name:		w20-575-121
Type and version:	SPARC/Classic 7.7I
Display type:		cgthree

What were you trying to do?
	Do a Tools... Sort... of my spreadsheet (on a sun sparc classic)

What's wrong:
	When I would click on a field to type in the sorting parameters
	and then attempt to type (with the mouse in the entry box),
	instead of typing into the Sort dialog, it would insert text into
	the main input bar (where you type your data into). When I then
	moved the mouse over to an adjacent Xterm window and attempted
	to type, my csh commands starting appearing in the same area in
	the Xess spreadsheet ...!

What should have happened:
	The text should have gone into the Sort dialog, and the Xterm
	typing should have appeared in the xterm window.

Please describe any relevant documentation references:
	None
