MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii It looks pretty nice, but how do you accept a selection and get on with it? I get in there and can cursor happily around, but I never seem to be able to make it take one of the choices and let me go on with the rest of the command line. Sometimes a space will do it, other times I have to hit ^G, which may or may not abort the whole command line. And the listing doesn't always get erased once I've managed to get it to make a choice, though it always is upon accept-line or repeated send-break. Finally, I wanted to mention that I got it into a state where the highlight was not visible -- I could only tell where I was because the word on the command line kept changing as I pressed the arrow keys. Eventually I think I crossed back over the word that had been offered as the initial choice (which was in the middle of the list somewhere -- I think it restarted an old menu completion after I thought I'd broken out) and then the hightlight came back. Nevertheless, for a quick hack it's pretty slick. -- Bart Schaefer Brass Lantern Enterprises http://www.well.com/user/barts http://www.brasslantern.com
