Lyons I like davex, I've used it, and I urge you to make it more UN*Xy, Dave, really! :-) (Didja every get around to the space=yes deal?) If you think the command shells available for ProDOS are funky, go run out and try your latest korne shell. . . There's always room for improvent. I'm sure I could write a really funky shell that does great file manipulation, but it wouldn't have any features. And I think appleworks make them about 256! times harder than on an IBM, and if you've every used an IBM (I know you have, Dave) you know what I mean. . .
