Yeah, the only way to delete is in UNIX by escaping all the funky
characters with a back slash. rm -rf Cp\(N\)Ir\(OTf\)2\?
makes one kinda dizzy.
>'mystuff/12/2' and enters that for a file name and xwinnmr 1.3 creates a
dataset via edc that it cannot find later (because it's two levels further up
the directory tree)
I say further down, you say further up :-)
I always thought it was a feature, so that you could put stuff in
sub directories. It doesn't always appeal to various functions
in xwin, though.
There is some checking, if you put a filename with a space, it
gets rid of the space for you :-)

My pet peeve (one of them, anyhow :-)) is in the integration routine.
If you define a zero region, ie. a region where the left and
right boundaries are the same, you get a barrage of error messages
when you go to view or print and half the time (maybe all :-)),
the intergrals don;t print. If you edit the intergral region
file, find and delete the line with the zero region,
integrals plot fine. Awfully simple to check for in software,
a pain if you have to manually go in and edit if you have a zillion
regions defined. I had to write a simple au program to check for
the problem.
