Talk about coincidence. I just had someone ask me today about adding a 'redo'
command to an option logon ci-script menu... It prompts for commands, allowing
only certain commands and executes them. Being able to redo (to just resubmit
the last command, or to edit it slightly) was a feature requested by the users
of the menu.

I didn't know about that routine either. Guess I oughta dig through the :HELP
files a bit more...

With the edit() routine you suggest, it should be a piece-o-cake to whip up a
little routine that allow then to do just that! Thanks a bunch!
