Pipes in 1.3 are case sensitive

e.g.
   make > pipe:a
   
will not go to 
   more <pipe:A
   
    I think that this is a bug (with respect to the usual Amiga env).
    
The workbench version of more doesn't allow one to invoke an editor.
This is sad.

I have my front panel led plugged into the appropriate part of my A2090,
but it doesn't bobble, it just glows. Is this what it's supposed to do? tell 
me that I have a hard drive? I could tell that by the ugly panel of seagate
black on the front of my computer.  (Make that the nice panel of Seagate black
on the ugly beige front panel; I would pay reasonable bucks for an all black 
case and keyboard for my amiga).

Sometimes the characters in my shell windows mysteriously dissappear (i.e., 
sometimes it will write out blanks instead of characters, till you kill the 
shell and start another one - I am using shell windows which setfont themselves to Courier 15 in shell startup, the only other strange thing I run is dmouse).

Michael
