No problem Robert, thanks for considering it.
Two questions:
1. What's your (developers') opinion on ticket #8328?
2. I get your points on the "number button" and generic stuff you
mention above. I have a number of patches from 0.21 with this type of
logic that I'm now porting to trunk. Is there any preferred way of
attaching a hotkey to these menu options?
Thanks,
Bill
