   Anyway, if you are running WB1.3, get ARP (its PD). It is heaps better than
   C= (and faster, and smaller etc,etc :-). It's wildcard's are also like
   Unix, (ie, uses the '*')

Be warned that, while ARP tries to be 100% compatable with CBM, it
doesn't quite make it. There are vendor reports that complex
installation scripts fail when run under Arp.

Also, using '*' breaks the fastest editor on the Amiga.
