Like magic, after sending this message I got past this. Unfortunately 
now I'm finding that the few bits and pieces of docs in the author's 
initial notes are completely invalid in the current source (by both 
failing and looking at source).

Can anyone assist with the append command? I have this in a cfg for 
isolinix.

default cosmos
label cosmos
kernel test_com
append load sort.dyn
append spawn hello.dyn
	
prompt 0

It loads, but totally ignores the appends. If I type them in by hand, 
all works ok. test_com is the gsco2008 program and it reads from stdin. 
Is my understanding that append will feed stdin incorrect? Do I need to 
specify /n ? Put in quotes? Something else?
