My preference would be to remove "set processor" as I find aliases (which aren't just abbreviations) more to remember. The command "info target" tells you about the target, while the command "info files" tells you about... er, the target. Sometimes they also provide anomalies, e.g, "bt", "where" and "info stack" are all the same -- except that hookpost-backtrace doesn't work with last alias. -- Nick http://www.inet.net.nz/~nickrob
