CED is Shareware, and has a commercial descendent, PCED, which is reviewed in
the March 10 issue of PC Magazine.  It is a very nice program which lets you
recall previous commands, define synonyms which expand to (possibly) lengthy
commands, and declare programs for which it should remember the parameters,
so that typing the name without parameters is the same as typing the name with
the same parameters as the previous time.

As the review said, after using CED for a while, you will think of a PC 
without it as an old klunker.  I sure know I don't want to do without it!

If no one posts it by March 10, I will post it here in comp.sys.ibm.pc (this
program would not be of general interest in net.sources).
