Well, I'd say, that |... thing still _is_ a sam command..., only delivered to the Edit command via the chord now. (Although, in acme this one (like >, <) can be used without the Edit command) > I assume Run works similarly? That is, I can put Run in a directory's > tag, highlight a filename in that directory, then highlight a command > and apply it to Run with 2-1 to run the command on the file? I don't know how well the Run script (note that it is _not_ a part of acme; it was designed by Russ Cox just a couple of months ago, thus you must really get it first in order to use it) can be used in directory listing windows. Otherwise I use it in the much same way as the Edit command. While Edit understands sam commands, Run can run any series of commands, like multiline awk script, for example. Find it in the forum.
