Set the options by holding down the command key while clicking on a filter in the shebang menu or the filter palette. See page 301 of the manual. "Optionally, filter output can be sent to a different window, instead of overwriting the selection-hold down the Command key while selecting a filter from the Filters list palette, or from the Filters submenu, to open the Filter Options dialog. Changes made in the Filter Options dialog affect all filters, and remain in effect until you make changes in the Filter Options dialog again." The manual has a nice TOC and Index that are both linked to the text referenced. Dennis -- ------------------------------------------------------------------ Have a feature request?
