greetings,


I have defined my mail command as mail/edit, and I also have an edtini.edt
file which defines a number of the commands that I use regularly in mail.

these commands however, are only available if my working directory is
the same as the one that contains edtini.edt .

I have defined edit as edit/edt/command=dev:[dir.dir1.]edtini.edt which
works well when I call up edt from any working directory, but it seems
not to carry through to mail/edt.

Is there anything that can be done?
