As the comment editor is actually meant to be left open, I'm not sure if you want to close it all the time. One idea I'm playing with on both of these issues. What if the comment gets stored as soon as the comment editor looses it's focus? The focus gets lost as soon as you move to another window or close the window. The revert function, however, would work only as long as you stay in the comment editor. > 3.

It doesn't make sense to use left/right alone as you'd need them for editing (at least till we get decent vi-keybindings ;) I usually use Alt-Tab to just switch windows back and forth so this point never occured to me, I admit. > 4.

It will be nice to have some shortcut for that (Ctrl+Shift > +E is already taken, though). I admit I usually press Ctrl-A to add the variation go to the comment editor and then move on. Now, if I add the above ctrl-left/ctrl-right bindings does this address your needs already? Another way which is easily done is to enable ctrl-a in the comment editor. This would give you a new variant and as you are in the comment editor you can insert your text right away, resulting in a pre move comment. > 5.

I have to admit I do not understand the behaviour here. It is actually set to follow this movement and it works if you start out with a vertically maximised window but not if you use other starting sizes. Strange. > 7.

I've added a toggle-switch for this board by Alt-B as well as a nice button for the function in case one wants to use the mouse. Please let me know if this would be satisfactory. I've committed this to cvs so you can check it out in real life. cu Alexander ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Centralized Desktop Delivery: Dell and VMware Reference Architecture Simplifying enterprise desktop deployment and management using Dell EqualLogic storage and VMware View: A highly scalable, end-to-end client virtualization framework.
