I find it's a little too good. FINGERS: "lc" MOUTH: "Damn!" I'm also thinking of rewriting some of the little tools I use so they work relatively well whether I'm on Linux or Windows or Plan 9 (much like Dan missing 'find') and I don't care for bash as much as I used to. I like rxvt on Windows (when I'm stuck on Windows) because X-style copy & paste is hard for me to unlearn (I always want to stop and read the menus in rio/9term, and I reflexively try to use the history when I'm busy), and it just seems natural to want to replace bash with rc so I can just keep copying & pasting my way through life. (No original thought here. Move along.) -Jack
