What would a reasonable keyboard shortcut for "Option->Select Parent"
be? Perhaps <Ctrl-P> or just <p>?

I guess I wasn't too clear on this. The changes I am making are
a little more fundamental. Instead of vtcl storing the entire
application in a single file, it will use a project system like
Symantec Cafe which keeps track of multiple source files. These
source files can contain any arbitrary code (multiple procs, etc)
and are then editable in the text editor of your choice. vtcl will
snoop the files to determine what functions they contain so that
a separate function browser will allow you to go directly to the
source file which contains the function you've selected.
