I don't like that, because it would take three option-letters in total to implement the same function in different variants. The old -d and the new -D'$^' would be the best in that -d would go back to what it was and -D would provide the much needed feature in two variants (possibly more in the future, if needed) while only taking one option-letter. The only problem is that it looks ugly. For the record, just -d'$^' is impossible, because it would break existing command invocations. Piotr
