all the recipes in /acme/edit/guide start with 'e' command (ee.l). 'e'
starts by looking in /mnt/acme/index for the buffer id of "file"; it
then operates on the corresponding buffer. so the edit commands are
meant to operate in /mnt/acme namespace (i.e. inside acme).
you can use 'sam -d' for shell scripts.
