  Note I have window devices W1 through W12.

  I have long used a script called ss
  to create a split screen window with a
  top and a bottom window.

  The text of the script is as follows.

  echo Press Clear To Find Split Screen
  wcreate -z
  /w12 -s=2 2 1 77 16 2 5 1
  /w11 2 17 77 7 2 4 1
*
  echo c > /w12
  echo c > /w11
  shell i=/w12&
  shell i=/w11&

  It works just fine.

  So I tried to make a script to make a
  left and a right window based on ss.

  I called it vss

  The text of the script is as follows.

  echo Press Clear To Find Split Screen
  wcreate -z
  /w8 -s=2 2 1 39 24 2 5 1
  /w7  2 40 79 24 2 4 1
*
  echo c > /w8
  echo c > /w7
  shell i=/w8&
  shell i=/w7&

It does not work. Why ?
