I guess fs.open <foo> list would work OK.

No guarantees, but have a look at what's in www.forthos.org/utils

Ok, they're added to the WWW site as well.

UNIX doesn't interest me much any more, so if the stuff in utils helps
you, that's about all I have.

Hmmm... that's really weird. Can you tell me the before/after parameters
so I can keep a note for things to look for?

Maybe... it sure feels like something screwball in the way I interact
with the IDE controller. Well, I'll keep my eyes open... remember,
ForthOS has only run on maybe a dozen installations at this point, so
there can be "gotchas" that would amaze both you and me.
Anyway, glad you've been able to get it running correctly!
