Well that's getting a key binding.  Extremely useful.  Thanks Kent for
the idea and Edward for the implementation.  My two common use cases,
where some directory import has imported files as @auto or @edit when I
would (perhaps later) prefer the other, and for one pager programs
imported as @auto where @edit makes more sense.
