Not exactly on topic: Back in the day (that would be the early 90's) I used to work in a SCO unix environment - the command interpreter had a built in spell checker that would offer a suggestion for the command you might have meant whenever you had a typo. Pretty nifty.

Yes, I've already got some VOC entries that are shortcuts to longer named jobs, and we do have a few VOC entries to catch common typos, what I'm wondering is if there is a more generalised way of intercepting unrecognised commands, ideally a way of calling a specific 'handler' program that can see what was typed in and make a decision internally on the best way to handle it.

Hello, Within Unidata, is there any way to intercept commands typed at the command prompt if they aren't recognised? It's to 'magically' allow slightly mistyped program names to launch that program - some of our routine names are quite long - and also to recognise abbreviated routine names in the nature of Quicksilver for the Mac, if anyone's familiar with that. Now, obviously I could do all this by running an extra shell over the normal command prompt but it would be nicer to have it work at the normal prompt... And I know the abbreviation thing can be done with VOC entries, and I've already got a few set up, but I'm looking for a more generalised solution.
