But when I have such a directory in acme and I 3-click it, it is not opened --- I have to manually copy the name into the tag and press Get. Is there anything simple that can be done, so that acme opens such directories? Related question is: I really need names with something like brackets. But all types have already some meaning, (), [], {}, <>. What do you use in such a case? Thanks Ruda
