I've noticed the following J Editor behaviors (Windows XP)--are they
"bugs"?

(1) When Shft-Ctrl-n is invoked on a new, blank .ijs editor window
(e.g., creating a title line for a new script), the editor beeps and
displays a window with the title "Selection" and containing an "i"
message: "No text selected".  It seems to refuse to create a comment
line via Shft-Ctrl-n as the first action on a new script window.

(2) Almost invariably, following some editing (adding, changing,
deleting text), when the cursor is clicked to the beginning of a line
and one uses Shift-Downarrow to select one or more lines, the editor
adds an extra line (overshoots) or, at the least, extra characters to
the selection (possibly based on the cursor's previous position?)--but
only on the first invocation of this action sequence.  If the same
sequence of actions is repeated in order to "correct" the editor's
selection, things work correctly.
