 Yes. Would you believe I didn't know about "pfunc" until the above message? Until now, I
thought the only other way to get those program thingies was to turn on scroll lock and
then type in a key sequence... well, now you know my computer credentials ;-)
(And I *did* RTFM, at least parts of it.)

 Umm... firstly, she is a he (don't worry, he is used to being addressed as she...), and
secondly, yes he is using 3.52. He also bought 4 and XYwin, but isn't using them. No hard
feelings -- it's sort of a belated tribute to 3.52, which is simply a great editor.
 And even with my primitive ways, I have been able to cobble little rough-and-ready
utilities together that do all the things that need to be done to make life easier for me.
Of course, there is always something remaining on the wish list, like copying to the
command line etc. NB: MINI.PROGRAMM still isn't working, even after creating it from the
scratch and rebooting. Oh well.
