Does the other thread talk about other bugs that would be fixed? Richard didn't seem to like the idea of adding a new feature for this, but it _sounds_ pretty simple (to add an unconditional translation layer), and if it fixes other bugs too... well... I dunno. BTW, do we really care about user bindings of S-TAB that much?=20 Couldn't we just tell them to bind backtab instead? It seems very likely that most user code that binds S-TAB does same thing as the packages we've discussed in this thread (bind 2-3 variants but essentially meaning backtab), and would either already work with backtab, or it it would be clean to modify them to bind backtab too. -Miles --=20 Do not taunt Happy Fun Ball.
