| I guess you really need to further define "can't possibly have a filePro
| file name".  After all, what about this:
| 
|     MyPath = getenv("PFDATA") & getenv("PFDIR")
|     MySelSet = MyPath & "/filename/sel.newsel"
|     ...
|     export ascii sel = (MySelSet) r=\n
| 
| or
| 
|     MyLibPath = getenv("PFDATA") & getenv("PFDIR") & "/filepro/Library/"
|     ...
|     call MyLibPath & "mylib"
| 
| 
| Oh, and I forgot READSCREEN, READOUTPUT and SORTINFO.  (Or were those on
| your original list?)

You're right, it's more complicated than I thought.  I was
going about it bassackwards anyway.  It's even easier, and
more economical, for me to build a regular expression that
matches all of the filePro File Names of interest, doing
the grunt work on those matching lines alone.
