In general this sounds quite good to me. The current conglomeration has always struck me as less than ideal. Two thoughts: - "edit document" seems "expert" to me. - the search commands seem by far the most important to me. In fact, they are the primary feature that (still) distinguishes Info from HTML etc. So I would put them first in the Advanced chapter. I also suggest putting Search Text before Search Index. Thanks for all your work on this. Karl
