CONfigure is a verboten word, so apparently our lovely friend listproc looks at the first three letters of a word.

Why are you asking about Congo Bongo on vectorlist, anyway? Maybe listproc is taking care of raster messages for us... ;-)

I don't think there's a way to turn off the keyword checks, unfortunately. It does manage to filter out a few commands that users mistakenly send to the list instead of the listproc, but it causes more pain on occasion than good, I think.
