Create a few directories in RAM:
Makedir ALL "RAM:test/foo (bar)" "RAM:test/bar (foo)"
Echo to "RAM:test/foo (bar)/foo"

A couple more Workbench woes
Old cruft that's been bothering me since forever with Workbench...
With Workbench as windows, the screen background (not window, not workbench) image actually fills the screen, and the screenbar is drawn on top of it - good!
With Workbench as backdrop, the Workbench (not screen, not window ...

Re: Workbench ARexx shortcommings
Same for 3.2.3
The only way to get a "file" somewhat correctly is to ask workbench about selected icons in active window, there's no way to get selected icons in _all_ windows (volumes, drawers and root), and getting "file" associated with icons left out on the workbench root windows is still ...

Re: Titties and beer?

Update for 3.2.2:
Allthough C:List has not changed, this bug has been fixed!!
