Hi, Alexander,

        I would like to know whether there is a way to have an alias like
cat $ | xv - .  Alias would be called xv and then, if it worked, when
xv filename is entered, it would issue cat filename | xv - .  I couldn't
find it in the documentation (man) or help in lftp.  If there is not such
option, please, consider this as a wish(list).

Well, I have two more wishes (not related to aliases):

1.  Better documented find:  What can it do?  Are there any options it
    accepts? (without needing to read the source code).

2.  Enhanced prompt.  Either two prompts, cmd:prompt and cmd:prompt-xterm,
    or handle cmd:prompt differently when running under $TERM == "xterm.*"
    (as a regular expression, like xterm-color, xterm-debian, etc).  What
    I have in mind is using xterm title enhanced prompts while still
    properly displaying command line (not sure whether the problem is in
    readline or whether it is lftp specific).  Maybe there could be
    something like at-cd that would issue a command anytime cd is issued
    successfully (but that would need variable like $pwd or ability to run
    something like echo `pwd`).


                        Thanks for you attention,

                                                Peter.
