When I used to teach people how to use FreeHand, I would go through  
steps at full speed, both as an example of how quickly things could be  
done, and 'cause I found it difficult to do repetitive tasks slowly,  
then, undo back to the beginning (FH allowed one to set undo levels up  
to 100) and step through so that I could explain things slowly.

Also in Windows.  In Windows, alt-space opens the little control menu 
in the upper left corner of every window.


*blush* I'm so embarrassed... I was showing someone LyX, and I 
remembered A-p s, A-p 1, A-p 2, A-p a, A-p A, A-p t, A-p i, A-p e etc, 
but not how to open the drop list...


Thanks,

An 'action watcher' would be nice to have indeed. It could basically be 
a stack of all messages sent to the status bar, this should be easy to 
implement.
