Hi guys,
since following most of the discussion in the Gem-List-Group I often
read phrases like "I prefer this SC in my program" or "I always use this
one in my program". It's great that you guys use them but weather you
use it or not, sorry but that's my personal opinion, it cannot be the
way to establish new/old SCs. It seems to me a little bit nerving
reading this all the time.
Somebody told us he uses CTRL-I for /italic/, CTRL-B for *bold* style in
his word processor. Besides that I dislike this SCs and prefer this
commands on the function keys, does he think we'll all change to this
SCs?
Another example: When argueing one can hit CTRL-A to easy you can also
argue that you can hit nearly every combination by accident. Often when
I try to hit the BS key I hit the HELP key. What now? Don't support the
HELP key because you can hit it to easily?
please do me a favour: Don't go on discussing SCs only with the
argument "I like it! You too? No? Okay, let me convince you!". I really
want to follow this standard weather I like all SCs or not. But I don't
want to follow a questionable discussion about someones' personally
predilection.
Remark: I don't want to offend anyone. If it seems so please consider
that my english is not as good as I'd like it to be. I've to look up
many words in the dictionary to follow the discussion and write
things down.
Bye FLYNN
