omshell

[Billy Cook]

Hi David,
Thanks for the info on omshell.  Has anyone started designing a
replacement for omshell yet?  We need to write a replacement for our
use and are willing to contribute if you are interested.  If there is
already someone working on it we don't want to duplicate effort
though.

Thanks,
Billy
