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. -Matt
