If you are in a graphics mode, and issue a system command,
what is supposed to happen?  Is the system command supposed
to execute in the background without affecting your current
graphics mode screen?  Or is it supposed to jump to a DOS
screen, execute the command and then return to graphics mode?

Thanks!
Dave
