- Rainer Riedl:
- ----------------
- There was only one response on my ^I -> ^? suggestion. Good? Bad?
- ----------------
- I suggest:
- CTRL-I - info on the text/object
- CTRL-? - info on the application

- Timothy Miller:
- ----------------
- Now, I REALLY disagree. I do not want to have to implement more than one
- block-handling system just because this standard says so. I will use
- these short-cuts insofar as they are applicable to my application, but I
- don't want to be FORCED to implement more than one. The big-cursor and
- the others are different enough that it becomes impractical to try to
- implement more than one in the same program some times. If my
- block-handling system is efficient and adequate enough, then there should
- be no need to add an inferior one. I will stick with the standard
- ----------------
- I don't think it will take you much time to implement a few
- block-handling systems, just a few tests.
- I dislike the big-cursor system, and I am not the only one who
- dislikes this system.

- Timothy Miller:
- ----------------
- And the shortcuts file will also allow people to deviate so far from the
- standard that the standard becomes a moot point. We won't have a
- standard... we'll have everyone's different opinion, which is no better
- than the apps we have now.
- ----------------
- We'll have a default shortcut file. And the user will do whatever he
- wants on this file. You are free to keep this file unchanged.
- The difference between now is that the apps will have the SAME
- shortcuts (for a given user).
-
- ----------------
- I don't like your idea of using a capital or lower-case letter for
- shift. I like the up-arrow because it makes it obvious what needs to be
- pressed.
- ----------------
- I agree.

- Michael Nolte:
- ----------------
- reLOAD tells me more than reVERT.
- ----------------
- How about REOPEN ? (like with Zip, on X)
