The `correct' thing is probably to get hold of Zefram's version of zsh-3.1.2 which allows `-W $home/Unix/pine/mail -f' (-W stands for with-directory, be thankful there's anything left for it to stand for :-/). The full thing probably looks like compctl -x 'c[-1-f]' -W $home/Unix/pine/mail -f -- pine There were some build problems in that version, for which patches exist: Zefram's hinted there may be another semi-official version along, so it might be worth waiting --- and it might be worth giving a new such version greater prominance, if possible, since the basic 3.1.2 is getting distinctly out of date for beta-testing. -- Peter Stephenson Tel: +39 50 844536 WWW: http://www.ifh.de/~pws/ Gruppo Teorico, Dipartimento di Fisica Piazza Torricelli 2, 56100 Pisa, Italy
