the command is new to me, as I investigated it for the http://leo.zwiki.org/Features page, I came up with different reason to rename it. Brute memorization won't work with Leo features, tab completion is a great aid to memory, and offers a lifeline for those drowning in features. If the command was named find-clone-all, it would appear in the completion pane upon typing 'find <tab>' Are there any other find related commands which don't start with 'find'? Is it convenient to create aliases for commands? If so, this metric (tab completion findability) might go some way in helping users find commands. Some might remember clone-find-all as a clone command instead of a find command (I would always use the 'find' entry point). > > Edward > > > > --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "leo-editor" group.
