OK. Thanks for the clarification. I'd like to revise my previous
comment about restricting use of certain constructs. For
instance, in this case, if the command would result in a random
movement then the shell should at least issue a warning about it.
Or perhaps refuse to do that completely. I didn't take a look yet
at the code, perhaps you've already done that.

Thanks,

Dejan
