Sarah,
I thought your suggestion was one of the better more thought out
suggestions I have seen on the list. I for one don't have a problem with
the current system but I think your suggestion could work.

First, I'm sorry my suggestion caused such consternation, I really don't
want the BN to look or act like Windows, even though Windows is
second-nature for me. Here is what I was thinking.
The word processor and book reader already have the following choices in
their menus: create, open, emboss, print, and set up. My thinking ran
along the lines of adding things to these menus, like copy file, rename,
erase, move, protection, translate, and so on. This would in no way
affect the current functions of the word processor/book reader, one would
still be able to jump into the application and open a file in the usual
ten seconds. I wish I understand why this concept seemed so scary, I
would think this would streamline the whole process beautifully. But,
there are an awful lot of people on the planet who don't think like I do,
thank goodness, so I'm curious to hear anyone's thoughts on this subject.
Thanks for reading,
Sarah

Dear God!
PLEASE DON'T COMBINE BOOKRE.ad, WORDPROCESSOR, ETC.!
The Keysoft Menu is concise and easy to learn. I can get into a book in
about ten seconds!
For some folks on this List, (like Richard) the current Keysoft Menu may
seem tedious. However, for the "average" user, it is safe and
fast. I've gone into the File Manger and erased, learned the space on
a CF card, to name a few tasks, and find it so much easier than
using Windows and a PC. (Deliver me!)
