Hi,

I found some strange behaviour in=20 Acme.

Everytime I right sweep '/' in Acme, a = new window=20 gets opened listing the files and subdirectories = under root=20 directory.

However, if I do it for, say = '/sys', it opens=20 a new window for '/sys' directory if it doesnt exist, else it = points to the=20 existing window for '/sys'.

Bug? Or am I missing = something?

Regards

dharani

If you're trying to search for something in the doc by prepending a / (really only useful for regexps) you'll have to use Edit. Otherwise, drop the slash.

My concern is that when I right sweep '/', say 5 times, I get five different windows displaying the contents of root directory, whereas when I right sweep, say '/sys', it opens only one window for '/sys' and points me to the same window thereafter. Now, is this what you are talking about?
