This is not a flame, this is a comment for improvment's sake...

I just unwrapped ARP 1.1 (REL2) and started using it. [excellent job guys]
Anyway, I miss one feature...

  The interactive option of the arp dir command (i.e. dir opt i) is not 
exactly the same as the AmigaDOS command.  I've gotten used to first
(t)yping a file, then going on to the next file OR (del)eting it.
This works great for wading through freshly downloaded or unarc'ed files
to strip out any dross.  This is a no-go with the Arp dir command, 
because it when you (t)ype a file, it steps onto the next file regardless.

I wouldn't have bothered you all with this, but I `aint got no' Arp source. :-(
