well, no problem, that's why they make it easy for both types of users.
I was a command-line junkie for 15 years, so hightilight-F4 is a ntural
for me. I did the Mavis Beacon typing tutor ( more than once) but I keep
forgetting, I always look at the keyboard as I type ( or I make
mistakes) and the command line is MUCH more my STYLE. I can appreciate
your style, which is why I asked. It seemed easier TO ME, but obviously
isn't as easy for you.
I'll just call you Mary, you don't have to be different:)
