Hmm, that would need me to sync these setting with keymaps, plus key teaching inside MC options. That means at least 2-3 moving points in this matter, which means it would take a lot of trial and error, or long time to figure everything on the matter :( While Far just works as is. BTW, I have a wish for Far, too, and I remember the first alpha versions where this actually worked that way: Storing settings in .ini (or .xml) files as opposed to registry. Author Eugene Roshal insisted on registry (while I insisted that this is a mistake - this was in 1996), so finally some .bat files have born to save/restore reg content, but I miss "portability" to this very date, at least as an option. F.e. I store Far executables on a VMWare virtual disk (or network share, or host drive), and access it from multiple VMs. Now keeping in sync my Far preferences between VMs is practically impossible. If you agree, you could ask for this feature on russian Far Manager forums :) >> Eclipse as far programming goes.

I figured these two, now I have to get used to them. But I'll for sure miss things like Alt+<+>, <Gray+> and <Shift+Cursor> to make selections in a more sophisticated way. > MC has been long stagnating, but now there is a new dev team which > really tries to make users' life better.

That very good news, I didn't know about it, MC looked standstill for years, now I see a nice group of developer team, seeing at the list there is hope they will be able to pull MC to the right direction. I'll try to make a build.
