[Lcdproc] SHELL environment variable not set

[Michelle Dupuis]

I have my lcdexec menu buttons somewhat working, but have a strange problem.
When I launch lcdexec from the command line, my echo commands show text on
screen (as expected) when buttons are pressed.  However, when I launch
lcdexec from a script file on start (a service script in /etc/init.d in
FC6), I get an error when buttons are pressed:

"SHELL environment variable not set"

Obviously the lcdexec program doesn't know what shell to launch the command
with.  So...why does it know when launched from the command line, but not
from another script?  (I don't see a SHELL variable set in my environment at
any time)

Thanks,
