Honestly, I'm inclined just to get rid of "rem" and absolutely require a filename for "remind". I don't think it's a terrible hardship to require the filename; if people want to use a default filename, they can roll their own two-line shell script that invokes "remind" appropriately. This has the virue of simplicity and consistency. Regards, David. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
