Oops, the last sentence is wrong. I forgot that you can always do Alt-y to recall earlier items from the kill ring. I guess an interesting question is whether the kill ring should be saved when fish exits (and/or shared through fishd). It seems useful and consistent to do it but then the duplication of functionality with history is more obvious. -- Beni Cherniavsky <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> (I read email only on weekends) ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys.
