Howdy folks! I have found that my Blassic problem with Cygwin (see
below) is apparently limited to Cygwin under an xterm and tcsh. Running
under tcsh in a command prompt window, the problem does not occur. Any

somewhere along the way, and I might someday stumble upon the source of
it if I keep going.
