Comments? It can often be a number of files, so `filename', even with multiple filenames wouldn't be always be that meaningful. PATCH: 3.0.5 improved zle display (previously stuffed up by Geoff Wing) would be better in my opinion. Then people could grab patches only relevant to specific topics rather than specific files. -- Geoff Wing [mason@primenet.com.au] Phone : +61-3-9818 2977 Technical Manager: PrimeNet Computer Consultants Facsimile: +61-3-9768 2909 Web: Mobile : 0412 162 441 [ Boulderdash: ]
