hi George
i don't know what tmp is holding at the time, but suspect it also has
double quotes or a string inside it.

"does not run correctly" is a bit vague.
Do you mean it prints, but prints the wrong numbers?
Or runs but doesn't print?
Or doesn't seem to run at all?
Without more info, I can only guess that there's a problem with the
paths - some needed file can't be found.

It might be interesting to examine the value of tmp after this call -
according to the docs, " ... A return value of 0 indicates a failure to
set up the window. "
I don't know *why* there could be such a failure, but this would be
the first step in finding out.
