I am not working in the XPD namespace, just finding a routine that
uses a Fileman routine (in DIA3).

The need for programatic redirection of pointers seems fairly basic. 
I don't understand why this hasn't been provided already.  I think
that FIXPTR^DIA3 is supposed to do this someday.

I have spent much of the day trying to untangle the code in P^DITP.  I
still can't find how in the code the pointers are actually being
changed.  I'm about to give up.  To much indirection...

I think I will have to write my own code, so I can understand it :-)
