Check the tooltypes in the Shell icon. Mine has a WINDOW spec, a
STACK size, and "FROM=S:Shell-startup" (no quotes). And tell him to
check the tooltypes again (including spelling). Too often we all see
what we expect to see, instead of what we actually read.
If all that seems ok, then check the Shell-startup script. An error
in that will cause it to bomb out. But I'd not expect that to cause
"can't find CLI".
If still no workee, try copying the original Shell icon and
S:Shell-startup from the Workbench floppy.
