Er.. you mean the enter key, or the tab key? Or maybe you mean like the 8, 4, 2 and 6 keys? Or maybe you mean this unlabeled key just above the enter key -- it has an arrow on it? I guess the only way to find out is by asking some absolute novices. But you have to wonder what such a person would do with an editor, once he found it. [Follow the documentation you say? With all those complicated letters of the alphabet in it? And we're not even getting into file syntax...] More seriously, I'm not suggesting this go into hamm. It would require a code change for elvis-tiny, and though it's a simple change, this just isn't the kind of change that's worth doing this close to release. It's too close to our core needs. Nor am I suggesting it go into slink, if there's not enough room on the release disk. Having enough space is crucial. I wouldn't object to seeing it on an alternate rescue disk series, though, if someone wanted to play with it. -- Raul -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
