I was never quite sure. You can duplicate the behaviour with a Shift-F10,
N, but I was never sure if this was what was being sent, or it there is
another more obscure keypress being generated and consumed by the IDE.
If you look at the "key mappings" topic in the help for the default
mapping you see various mappings that don't appear to match what is
available from the menus, and some of which don't work (Ctrl+N for one).
So I have no doubt that there is some way of opening another edit windows
that is bound to the default mappings, isn't documented and is being
generated some how.
Cheers, Max.
