Hi,

Heres how i "fixed" it, hope it is the right way to display a "wait" cursor while a process executes.

-------------------------
FMain.Mouse = Mouse.Wait
WAIT 
Application.Busy = 1

SHELL "sha512sum lenny.iso" TO actualSUM

Application.Busy = 0
FMain.Mouse = Mouse.Default
-------------------------

I read "If you call WAIT from an event handler, you may create infinite recursions, and then stack overflows" from the Docs, i hope it wouldn't be an issue in this case (i.e., if i were to use WAIT for the click event of a Button).

Regards,
Vikram
