D--n! My fault: I had created a function named ag in rcmain (my first try involved a function and writing :ag something to test how to call rc functions from within acme and get this search feature working.) I had completely forgotten until a few seconds ago: removing it makes it work as expected. Well, lesson learnt: the error is usually the users fault :D
Well, if you want to have ag: within your acme, change the nag script to read: #/bin/bash ag "$1" $2 --nogroup --nocolor | plumb -i -d edit -a 'action=showdata filename='$2'/ag/'$1 This can also be written as just a rule within "plumbing," no need for an auxiliary shell script but since now it is working I'd rather not touch it in a while ;) Regards, Rubem
