Sam,

I am not sure if I explained the problem properly. 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?

Regards
dharani
