Should not, but they do. People should use Ctrl+V for paste (or Shift+Ins), but they don't. You'd think that even the toolbar paste icon would be quick enough, but they right-click and look for the paste item which _never_ appear at the same place. Us geeks have more than once made completely incorrect assumptions about what people actually do. And they do unimaginably inefficient things. Hell, if they did what I think is best, they'd be using terminals for day-to-day file management, and write scripts to help with those tasks. My impression in working with people who use office type of apps is that they do indeed keep one hand on the mouse (not literally, obviously). On more than one occasion, I've gotten explicit requests to use drop-downs as time picker. -- Branko Vukelić bg.bra...@gmail.com stu...@brankovukelic.com Check out my blog: http://www.brankovukelic.com/ Check out my portfolio: http://www.flickr.com/photos/foxbunny/ Registered Linux user #438078 (http://counter.li.org/) I hang out on identi.ca: http://identi.ca/foxbunny Gimp Brushmakers Guild http://bit.ly/gbg-group
