Just a quick follow-up post: I came into GTM via a "tied" method, where the bash shell goes directly into GTM (via the script posted earlier), and it does NOT drop to a GTM prompt.
Looks like I stirred things up for no reason. Sorry. I just thought that ^ZU somehow trapped errors such that it would not drop back to the GTM prompt irregardless of how it was called. It seems that this is true most of the time, but not 100% if ^ZU is called from the command prompt. To get the full 100% coverage, then I will use the "tied account".
