You're the second person to suggest that, and I suspected that it would work
until I attempted to check TD_CHANGESTATE.  I was hoping for a more
definitive response than "this oughta work...".  I guess I could just stick

I grabbed a copy of your requester some time ago but neglected to thank you.

		Thank you.

Honestly, I had been considering adding your code with a new Menu item which
would toggle between Un*x and AmigaDOS wildcarding.  I KNEW someone would
give me hell for that one :-).  Thanks for your input.
