No, unfortunately; after working with one of my pine users, we found 
that several commands had to be modified because pine uses the same 
tab-completion in several different ways (e.g. such as when picking a 
folder to save a message into---where it will use either LIST or 
LSUB). The solution (read: hack) was essentially identical to the 
SELECT solution, so it was easy to do.

Huh... I wonder why pine does what it does, then.

<sigh> Yet Another Reason to use mutt.
