To quote Robert's instructions for frame UNC, "a remote share cannot
be your ~'current directory')". It's just the way it is.

I suggest using BX...Q2 instead. It's faster, and avoids erasing the
CMline:

46=BXs,a, ,\,\,t,s,c,l,i,e,n,t,\,c,\,x,y,Q2

Also, if you get unwanted overwrite confirmation prompts, you can
avoid them with:

46=BXs,a,/,n,v, ,\,\,t,s,c,l,i,e,n,t,\,c,\,x,y,Q2

Hallelujah! I suppose the next frontier will be Win 8 -- or its
successor, if 8 turns out to be the next Vista.
