Yeah, and I have considered this. I ended up choosing for mobility so I
could actually work on a different machine, or someone else's, without
quickly deleting all their lines of code and then closing the windows. lol.
I just think it is funny that the key commands change (first of all, WHY??)
and it is even funnier that the "old" commands become so completely
destructive. Presumably the current key shortcuts are something of a
standard across all development environments.
The only piece of me-specific stuff I carry around with me is windows
commander. I tend to install that everywhere I go, cause it is just such a
nice file manager.
cheers,
bob
