Re: P command

["cmadsen" cmadsen@xxxxxxxx]

BX is weird. I would not depend on the command line for anything when using
it. I suggest rewriting your program to use the PRompt command instead:

≪prFirst≫BXpQ2≪prSecond≫BXpQ2≪pr≫

The last bit just clears the prompt. The message won't appear on the command
line, of course; it will be on the PRompt line.
