Took a few more minutes look at this...
If you leave the MDI by pressing Enter or Return with a Blank MDI command, then I believe the following would solve your problem...
Change the following in ui_common.py (/home/operator/_VERSION NUMBER YOU ARE ON_/python)
FROM:
TO:
There are other ways to leave the MDI, but they would require a more complex solution. This should get you back in business again

Thank you Greg that explains a lot, I thought that it was my fault.
I was hoping that you would come back to me as I believe you have PP on a machine.
I am preparing to sell this machine and did not want to have any problems for the next user so I can now can explain re. the clicking of any button on the shuttle or jog key to get the mpg back in focus.
I have made a crib sheet for the next owner to be able to update to the latest version.
Where are you in the states ?
I want to build a smaller mill from scratch. I like a challenge

Nah, not your fault! I am guilty of having PathPilot on two machines I have an 1100S3, and a Slant Pro that I hardly use, but I got for a deal I couldnt pass up.
You could add the solution above to the crib sheet, might save some hassle. I always leave MDI by pressing enter on a blank MDI entry anyhow.
If yours is anything like mine it'll be sad to see it go. That Tormach has built me a lot of neat stuff, including much of my plasma table.
