I assume the flag goes down anytime you run screen, right? Since the
screens are on seperate ttys from your logon tty, the help flag defaults
to off when you enter them. When you exit screen, the flag returns.
Probably the best way to handle this is to place 'mesg -h y' in your
.cshrc. The flag will go up whenever you start up csh, instead of only when
you log in. That may cause problems if you turn your flag off, though.

Nope, I haven't used screen in months.
I've figured out that it only happens after I've su'ed to
root, so I've writtena n alis for su that takes care of it.

I don't understand why su'ing to root would do that.

OK, new rule - just as all Grex users are named "Steve", all
Grex helpers will now be named "Rob". >8)

You should change your name. The command to do that is "chfn". >8)

(I usually turn my help flag off after a question or two, as I usually have
limited time.)

I got nailed by the help request lag killer again tonught. THat is by the time
I was able to respond to my requester he/she had gotten bored of waiting and
canceled their help request. Even though I was trying to answer as fast as
I could.

That used to happen depressingly often. Been a little while now. (But I
still get the folks who can't wait to start typing, so that their output gets
mixed with my desperate attempts to shell out & I can't tell what's going on.)
