    When you get a minute, I have a couple of questions about my login file.

    	1: is the '$' character == ^[ on other systems or is it a 
    	   literal '$'?

It's an escape character, ASCII 33 (27.)

    	2: Whenever I attempt to use valrets in my login it hangs 
    	   until I disown the process (see 1 :)), I could not make heads 
    	   or tails from the docs on the webpage.

You're doing stuff I haven't tried.  Let me know how it turns out!

    	3: CRTSTY causes multiple logins simultaneously, is this normal?
    	   I did not see any switches to disable this function so am using
    	   aaa emulation.

AAA is good enough for most stuff;
there's a supdup client for Unix available too.
