>String Gadgets

Amen!  While we're fixing string gadgets, let's get rid of the
right-amiga-x to clear it, and put it on left-amiga-x instead, where
all system-defined key shortcuts should be.

The intuition manual says be nice and make all menu key shortcuts on
right-amiga keys, then takes away two (or more?) of them for string
gadget manipulation.  I say give them back to user programs, and keep
Intuition's keys with things like the existing right-amiga V,B,N,M.

BTW, Commodore relented to SERIOUS MARKET PRESSURE :-) and is getting
rid of the chicken-head key, and replacing it with the old "left
amiga" key that all us old-timers have grown so fond of.
