Forget it, Michael. None of the proposals considered backward

Um... So you're telling me that a program that knows what to do with
this:
? [ -d backup ]
{ ::; + backup; | cd backup; | rm -f dummy `ls -t msg.* | sed -e
1,32d`; }
Could not also understand (and do the right thing with) this:
:0 c
backup
:0 ic
| cd backup && rm -f dummy `ls -t msg.* | sed -e 1,32d`
If so, why?
If no, I don't understand your complaint.
Please enlighten me.
Aloha mai Nai`a!
