	The next release of my particular version (really!  soon now!) uses
the CLI's path as well as _path ... thus, automatic inheritance of the path.
In terms of enviroment variables, I'm adding support for the 1.3 ENV: device
(which is really just a directory assign for 1.3)... this is a global
Mechanism.

	Pipes are another matter.  Bill Hawes has got *real* concurrent
pipes working in his Commercial WShell, but my shell will probably not have
it until an easy way to spawn generic processes is found.
