>Description:
	The :args command gives an incorrect list of arguments,
	or more accurately a different one to that of the original vi.
	It also seems a touch misleading.

>How-To-Repeat:

	vi /etc/*ly
		# /etc/daily	/etc/monthly	/etc/weekly
	:n
	:n
	:rew
	:args
[/etc/daily] /etc/monthly /etc/weekly
	:e!#
	:args
/etc/daily [/etc/weekly] /etc/monthly /etc/weekly

>Fix:


>Audit-Trail:
>Unformatted:
		nvi 1.03
