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
