Well, I started out attempting to play along in xfce4-terminal and received: bash: tmp/cmd.log: No such file or directory Next I tried konsole which surprised me when it was already installed. That's when I noticed there's no "/" in front of tmp so I added it. Was then advised that "cmd" is not installed. I took that as a sign of progress. That makes me now ask: What error message are you receiving IF you are receiving error feedback? Mine's now acting like it would perform properly if "cmd" was installed. Cindy :) N.B. Now remember why konsole is installed. It's still majorly doing all kinds of hinky BAD things with text input. It's still throwing in extra spacing and lunging text all over the place.
