- Actually, it isn't, since the commands will be executed by separate
- System() calls and thus get different Shells. I think,
- anyway. However, if you were to put them in the same @onopen..

- The alias isn't useful for the people who have their machines online
- most of the time, anyway, and besides, you can delete files through
- ARexx as well. Using muFS and running all AmigaGuide-capable programs
- as a user with write-privileges on RAM: or T: only would be one
- possibility, but obviously also imperfect. Besides, it might be the
- AmigaGuide Layout Process that executes these. Is that started by the
- application task or input.device?
