I can see why you'd want that <BEG>

However, there's a similar feature built into
bash, and I guess there's where you'd want
to add your feature, too, since aterm, xterm,
whatever ... only run a shell anyway, and are
a way of accessing a shell in a graphical environment.


Have a look at
man bash
/cdspell



Cheers,
Tink
