Lines: 20 >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. ..Bob -- Bob Page, U of Lowell CS Dept. page@ulowell.edu ulowell!page "I've never liked reality all that much, but I haven't found a better solution." --Dave Haynie, Commodore-Amiga
