Thanks. And in case you want to support different command arguments per
host, you might think about connection-local variables.

Of course, and I did. But a menue is more convenient. 'C-h m' returns:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
key             binding
---             -------

TAB             forward-button
ESC             Prefix Command

C-M-i           backward-button

A longer list than needed; the relevant keys must be found.

Ahh, and applying 'e' (disk-usage-eshell-at-point) returns

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
eshell-mode: Wrong type argument: stringp, nil
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

Best regards, Michael.
