The old behavior of Alt-o seems helpful to me, but still many users use the new Alt-o to sync contents within both panels, what is also fine. Let me propose some possibilities: 1) Revert Alt-o -> annoyed users because Alt-o suddenly changes. 2) Create an alternate keyboard shortcut such as Alt-i that acts like the old Alt-o. 3) Keep Alt-o shortcut and switch between old/new Alt-o in Options/Configuration. Personally I vote for 2) because mc won't lose any of its functionality and it won't need too much work IMHO. -- Jindrich Novy <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, http://people.redhat.com/jnovy/ _______________________________________________ Mc-devel mailing list http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/mc-devel
