I renamed my copy of SHOW to SHOWFILE but then set an alias as LOOK. Its locate subcommand is so much like XEDIT that there are some execs I have that I have forgotten whether I have coded a call to LOOK or a call to XE DIT to display the file. The only subcommand that trips me up is changing to HEXIDECIMAL display. It isn't like XEDIT and it isn't quite like BROWSE.
