Who is responsible for the ARP set command? I'd like the functionality to be of the form: set [item] [item]... where each [item] is one of the following: var=value Sets var to value var= Sets var to the empty string var Deletes var from the list If no items, set should echo the current list (as it does.) This doesn't seem to work with the latest ARP . . . -tom

Return current setting of this var only. ...unless someone wants to write a 'get var' command. -larry -- Janus? Well, look at it this way. If you squint a little, the J could be Amiga checkmark, and the rest of the word describes MsDos. +----------------------------------------------------------------+ | // Larry Phillips | | \X/ {ihnp4!alberta!ubc-vision,uunet}!van-bc!lpami!lphillips | | COMPUSERVE: 76703,4322 | +----------------------------------------------------------------+
