This
is why the ex-mode support is not enabled by default and part of the reason
why its practical usage is somewhat limited yet - if you don't remember
exactly what do you want to invoke, tough beans. Someone shall address this
issue in the future.</p><p>Also, perhaps wider scale of commands should be implemented in ex-mode. The
code is extremely flexible and it is very trivial to make another ex-mode
command handler, it's just that no one has done it yet ;-). Also, more actions
should be able to take arguments.</p></div><div class="navfooter"><hr><table width="100%" summary="Navigation footer"><tr><td width="40%" align="left"><a accesskey="p" href="ch12s04.html">Prev</a> </td><td width="20%" align="center"><a accesskey="u" href="ch12.html">Up</a></td><td width="40%" align="right"> <a accesskey="n" href="ch13.html">Next</a></td></tr><tr><td width="40%" align="left" valign="top">How to use it </td><td width="20%" align="center"><a accesskey="h" href="index.html">Home</a></td><td width="40%" align="right" valign="top"> Chapter 13. ELinks BitTorrent Client</td></tr></table></div></body></html>
