Hi, I think this should be an option for the user. In some development-environments (e.g. MS Visual Studio 6.0) F5 is for continue, f8 for next step. It is confusing if you have to change your habits. I, for example, write VB-programs to edit to source code according to certain rules - or to list all functions used by a page/site. I do not want to make my tests more difficult by having to press different keys for each type of tests. It should not be difficult to have the key-codes in a table/array. If someone feels, an option is too much effort to implement in FB itself, there should be a simple interface allowing FB-Add-ins. This interface could be a structure-definition of the settings-options. The add-on would read it, offer the user various options, make the necessary changes, write it back and notify FB that it should reload the settings. For these functions the add-on could offer environments or custom- choices., thus it would be easy to add new environments/UIs. You must accept, that you can please all users sometimes, some users all the time, but you cannot please all users all the time.
