you're assuming the command fits on one line.
some of the stuff i construct in the command window is multi line,
hence send is really useful. it is also consistant with the window
manager.
i don't like acme. it has some interesting ideas, but i can't use it.
rob wrote in one of the sam papers (iirc) that most people don't use
complex sam commands. i used to be like that, until i learnt the error
of my ways, so now i construct fairly complex stuff and refine it till
it's right.
having 'perfect' undo means i can make a wild guess, try it, undo it
if it's wrong, and loop until i have something that smashes multiple
files into the shape i want them.
