Alex,

 

Thanks for the thought (and, for that matter,  your Applevis podcasts - concise 
and straight to the point).

 

Could you, please, describe: just how would you edit favorits folder list?

 

Didn't find appropriate menu items, built-in help is mouse-user oriented. Tried 
conventional drag and drop (VO+, and VO+.), didn't quite work out.

 

Thanks!

Best regards,

Anatoliy D. Popko
