​You're welcome.  Hangnails can be annoying, and they can confuse newbies
mightily.

​*Changing* the name of existing commands would break settings files.  It's
possible (and easy), to *add* a new command name.

However, once you've tracked down the "official" name for a command, there
is not much use in creating another name ;-)​

​This is a separate issue.  The names come from Tk (iirc).  Again, they
can't be removed, but new names could be added.  This would be surprisingly
complicated, but would be worth doing.

I'll add an enhancement request.  I'm the one to do that, as the details
involve Leo's deepest innards.

Heh, just discovered this mouse method.

Hover over a tab, and mouse wheel up/down to traverse the list of open Leo 
files.

I think Ctrl-PgDn, Ctrl-PgUp also work, I think most web browsers use those?

Thanks Edward
    now that I have been pointed at the name of the underlying commands I will 
take a look at the key bindings.

Interestingly (to me), although Ctrl-T seems somewhat of a 'standard' for 
moving tabs, I have never used it. Other editors use Shift-Right, for 
instance

Re: commands to move to next file in 'file edit list'?

[john lunzer]

I've seen Next and Prior used on the linux side for key mapping. But I 
agree that these names are confusing.

http://wiki.linuxquestions.org/wiki/List_of_Keysyms_Recognised_by_Xmodmap

I have to believe they are ancient designations perhaps going back to the 
teletype era. A quick google search for "unix teletype keyboards" reveals 
that for some there was neither PgUp/PgDown or Prior/Next.

thanks for the pointer. Hmm...

- yes, the commands seem to be the unhelpfully-named (to me at least) 
'tab-cycle-next' and 'tab-cycle-previous'. I do think that some of Leo's 
primitive commands could benefit from a re-naming blitz (difficult though I

- also confusingly to me, the keys they are bound to are called "Ctrl+Next" 
and "Ctrl+Prior". Any idea where these names come from? I've never

Also looks like Ctrl+Tab performs the same function as Ctrl+PgDown

I believe these are already bound to Ctrl + PgUp/PgDown. If not let me know 
and I'll fish them out.
