Some questions I have about it are: (1) What is the most recent version? 'Version' tells me I'm running 34.1, and there's a bug in 'rename' dealing with relative path names that I would like to see squashed. (2) Is ARP going to be reasonbly compatible with 1.3? (3) What are all the features of the ARP file requester? Here's the few "undocumented" ones I've found by experimentation -- Right mouse click gives a device list. Shift-cursor-right sends cursor to end of line. Shift-cursor-left sends cursor to beginning of line. The only other function I'd perhaps like to see is a 'clear-field' function -- having the previous input still hanging around is great sometimes, but a drag almost as often. Thanks in advance.
