Hi,
I'm glad to see this thread starting. I'm still using 0.51.3.1
specifically for the KDE support, mainly I just use the menus and pager.
I've been hoping that the 0.60 series would eventually include this
feature, if not I'll stay with 0.51.3.1 - would like some of the bbkeys
stuff however.
Here's hoping ;-)
