For reasons that I won't go into, I'm using Tshell as a replacement shell
for the pmshell under OS/2. What I don't understand is why the command
line programs--souper and vsoup--require the pmshell to be running in
order for them to work. At least I assume that they do, since when I try
to run either of them under Tshell, both just hang, doing nothing.
I'd hate to give up Yarn/Souper/Vsoup, but as I don't have the resources
to run the PMshell under OS/2, it looks as if I might have to forego using
these programs.
An explanation as to why pmshell.exe must be loaded for souper/vsoup to
run would be helpful, so too would suggestions or alternatives that I
could consider using to fetch mail/news so that I could import them into
Yarn, which, of course, works fine under Tshell. (Would uqwk be an
alternative?)
Thanks in advance for considering this message and for responding.
