Appendix D. includes a discussion of the filename completer. Fcomp. Fcomp includes a cache and can do keymapping. It is indeed a seperate program as is pathman. I use Wshell all the time and just found out about using inline arexx programs. I updated around Jan. of this year when he had a special offer mailed to me. He has been very good about mailing to regester users. I never expected getting a card back thanking me for my shareware contribution to conman and then letting me know wshell would soon be updated (that came in Oct). Sure enought in Dec. I got a notice about 1.2. I like getting feedback when I send in those registration card. It certainly makes a good impression. BTW the Wshell manual was produced with AmigaTeX.
