Joe, How did you find out about ctrl+shift+up? I wasn't aware of it and it is not listed as a shortcut in any of the menu items. I always found it annoying to scroll up (either using mouse or up arrow key), especially when the verb output is long, to previous entry and hit enter and then modify it. However, thanks to you, now I know this shortcut so it will be helpful from now on. Thanks, Vijay.
