Re: focus handling


Tom,

The page keys should probably work wherever the focus is, but the
arrow keys have to work "whenever the focus is in the source window,
but NOT in the little search pane, or the file or function combo
boxes..."  Otherwise you couldn't correct text in the file box, for
example, before hitting a return to go to the file.  Either that or we 
need to make these combo boxes mouse-only (i.e. drop-down menus.)

There are other bindings like this that are wrong too.  "n" and "s"
are bound to next and step, but again only when you are focused on the 
source pane.  They too need to be "whenever you are NOT in the combo
or entry boxes".  This latter is a known bug.  All these bindings need 
tuning.
