Actually, I think it was used in Win 95 or, perhaps, earlier
versions. I recall learning Window-Bridge on a 95 system and having
read this somewhere while teaching myself. However, we are talking
quite some time ago, so I could be wrong.

If I remember right, this was also used in Win 95 as well.
The only reason peeps were able to press the enter key to open
files and shortcuts etc. was because JFW or WinEyes made it work that
way.

Subject: The behavior of the enter key?
Hi friends,
I'm getting into mac os and exploring the programs bit by bit, and
one thing above all else is really starting to irritate me. That is
the behavior of the enter key in finder. It pops up a box you can
use to rename the file or folder that has focus. If you want to just
open the thing you have to use command O. What is the dang sense of
that? How often do you want to rename safari and itoons for example,
compaired with the number of times you just want it to open? Please,
is there any way to change this aweful behavior?
Thanks,
Erik
