[Users] Compilation error using Simfactory

[Erik Schnetter]

Jay

This error is caused by an empty shell command. One of the settings in
your MDB file for Galileo100 is an empty string. Unfortunately, the
empty string is not a proper shell command. My guess is that either
removing that line (which would then use the default), or changing the
setting to ":" (the colon character) would work. The colon character
is a do-nothing shell command.
