How do I launch a root shell from within Eterm?

It is sometimes useful to spawn a UNIX shell from within an Eterm session. Here is the procedure:

From within your active Eclipse session in Eterm
Press F2
Press T to launch the TCL shell
Type the following to launch a UNIX shell:
```
sh
```
Type the following to escalate the shell to superuser (root) mode:
```
su -
```
Enter the root user’s password when prompted
You are now at the root (#) prompt
To exit, type:
```
exit
exit
```
Press ESC at the TCL (;) prompt

Note: the user logged into Eclipse must have access to TCL, and you must know the root password.
