Hi Paul,

 PW> Uh?

Yeah, that's what I thought, too! Jasen must have been half asleep when he
wrote that! Pity, because he's quite clever, usually ;-)))))

Neat, I do such things too, all the time! But it doesn't explain anything
about executable extensions, like Jasen said! Might he still be right,
then?

I mean: does `.ext=Edit %{at}sfn[%1]` not work???

Byebye,
