Well, I tried it -- Walter's way, I think; maybe Loki's -- and don't
remember for sure which of my machines I was on at the time. But I
remember I couldn't tell whether it took.
Seems as if vi (or vim or whatever else Pan offered) ought to be pretty
obviously different -- and it isn't ...
Another trouble (which at least makes me thing it was on this same
machine I'm using now) is that it did something ver-r-ry strange, and has
just done it again.
I hit Edit, then either Set Editor or Manage Editor List; and what it
shows me is weird. I thought at first it was just my .sig; but I just
tried it again -- and it showed this message, as far as I had gotten with
it.
What's more, it does the same if I leave this one hanging (it's a
followup, obviously), go back to Pan, and start a fresh post.
Bug, maybe?

I have precious (very precious) little idea where up is.
