that's what i found too.

also:
    $ MH=/dev/null pick -sequence foo
    pick: `/dev/null' specified by your MH environment variable is not a 
normal file
    $ cp /dev/null /tmp/null
    $ MH=/tmp/null pick -sequence foo
    pick: Your /tmp/null file does not contain a path entry.

i pushed the -nosequence change last night.

Thanks, the MH= was worth a try since it works with MHCONTEXT (I think
:-\). Maybe that's a bug?
