I much prefer that when I type "cd df0:" the system goes to the currently
inserted disk, rather than some previously existing one.  I have a simple
dodge that I use a lot: if for example you have a work directory you want
to keep coming back to, simply do an "assign w: df1:mywork" or whatever,
then whenever you want that particular directory just refer to it as "w:".
Saves a lot of typing.
