When you first asked for something inline (like a macro) as a default action, I took short look at inline actions. Using a macro was cheaper a more foolproof to implement so I chose that approach. I personally think that inline actions are an interesting and useful idea and would like to pursue them in the next release. -Tom -- Tom Eastep \ When I die, I want to go like my Grandfather who Shoreline, \ died peacefully in his sleep.
