Re: [WDSCI-L] Tip: User action keys for filtering views.

[Vern Hamberg <vhamberg@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Is CTRL-A already defined for "Show all"? Or is that set to the Windows 
"Select all"? It is "Show all" in the CODE Editor (which, BTW, I might call 
the "real" LPEX editor - the one in WDSC is a Java version, sometimes 
called jLPEX, and it does not yet run LPEX macros--some hint it will some 
day). LPEX gets its name from "live parsing editor" - don't know why the 
"X", but that origin is almost worse than saying LPEX!
