Got it! The time lag on my end seems to be so that you are getting replies to me
on the list before mine are showing up. Sorry about that. 

I don't know why it didn't work for me the first time at the term prompt. I've
made the changes you suggested at the panel and it works, so I'm content with the
solution. I'll leave the session manager running, then.

Thanks again,
