Sorry it's hard to explain what I mean. Basically, I have some keybinds set up like this: macro browser l "<c>^u/home/dive/mail/lists<return>" Works fine, but, I want to be able to cd into an mbox. I can't with <c> because I get an error about it not being a folder. So is there a command I can use in a macro or bind that will cd to an mbox? > -- > Cameron Simpson <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> DoD#743 > http://www.cskk.ezoshosting.com/cs/ > > The ultimate result of shielding men from the results of folly is to fill the > world with fools. - Tom Biggs, DoD #1146, <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> -- Have you ever wondered what makes Californians so calm? Besides drugs, I mean. The answer is hot tubs. A hot tub is a redwood container filled with water that you sit in naked with members of the opposite sex, none of whom is necessarily your spouse. After a few hours in their hot tubs, Californians don't give a damn about earthquakes or mass murderers. They don't give a damn about anything , which is why they are able to produce "Laverne and Shirley" week after week. -- Dave Barry, "The Taming of the Screw"
