I agree with you, and said as much in a thread on exactly this topic some months ago. I don't seem to have saved those messages so I forget exactly when that was, or who else said what. As I recall though, the upshot was that this discrepancy was by design -- CTM concluded that it was optimal to have two distinct commands rather than a context-sensitive behaviour, unfortunately. -ben -- Ben Kennedy, chief magician zygoat creative technical services 613-228-3392 | 1-866-466-4628 http://www.zygoat.ca
