i received several useful opinions regarding how to solve this
matter, ranging from using a restricted shell (Borne & Korn), to
sudo,
to starting an xterm with script (1) running, etc but none were
exactly what i needed in this case.
i still can't remember when i wrote the original script but at
least i have remembered where i was when i last used it so there
is hope
of finding it. once found, i'll post it here in case it might
be useful to others.
