Ok, I understand this thing (and now I also set up this function). But
the question still remains how to start 'amail'. I can imagine to change
the plumbing rule for faces to start 'amail'.
Isn't it nicer to have all things together in one instance of acme? I
find it useful to Del the mbox window now and get it back later by one
single click.
It wasn't hard to change /sys/src/cmd/acme/rows.c to let acme display
different main tag line (although I don't have deeper understanding ;).
I think this is a very ugly hack.
Isn't there a way to change the tag line on run time via some
/mnt/acme/... ctl file? I think it is 'cause running external commands
are shown there. But I fail to find this file because of the per-process
namespace (I think).

Thanks, I saved a text version in my local hints file. :-)
