- Sorry for the late response, but I am trying to do too many things these
- days. I have a CD (music) coming out at the end of the month and trying
- hard to get the sleev layout sorted.
-
- Anyway, back to GEM...

- Possibly with Control. ie CTRL+/-/0 for zoom in/out/100% and CTRL* for
- Fulling a window. Any objections anyone? Could also be useful for DTP
- preview modes.

- This seems reasonable, any objections anyone? I think Papyrus works that
- way, and it should affect 'simple' text editor that have no concept of
- pages, frames, etc.

-
- This is a valid point. Is the author of ST Guide on the list? Does anyone
- know him?
-
- In any case, we should finalise the keyboard shortcuts first. One thing
- that should be noted is that the list is/will be? echoed to MAUS. Can
- anyone with MAUS access let me know what's going on? I would very much like
- to give MAUS users a chance to vote. And while on the subject of voting -
- who is eligible to vote?
