I'll ignore the presence of the word "click" above, and just comment on the
fact that you have pointed out an almost hidden function. <G>
Sure, "K" says Open Local File or URL, but how did you grok the fact that
F3 would: a) bring up that SLOT - and b) actually insert the file ?
BTW, "cntrlR" does the same thing and is a bit more straightforward as there
is no "dual" function involved to add to my confusion. <G>
