Ok. This works. Nonetheless, it's a question what is better. With your
way you have to write 'New' somewhere (either in front of the
directory, or in the tag line and use the 2-1 chord on it). This may
be even more work then copying the directory to the end of the tag
address and click the Get, which is (for directories) always there...

The other way round. Is there any reason why acme doesn't try the
literal meaning of the name (what other should it, anyway?) as rc
does?

Thanks
Ruda
