I have a program called "next".  I would like to be able to invoke it
from an Aegis window.  The problem is that "next" is an Aegis shell
builtin (sort of).  Even when "next" can be found in my command search
rules, by typing "next" at the "$" prompt, nothing happens.  If I
fully qualify the program, /usr/local/bin/next, the program works.

Limitations:
    I don't want to run a C Shell.
    I don't want to change the name of the program.
    I don't want multiple copies of the program.


Any suggestions?


Robert
