> Ahh... this leads me back to the idea that I The biggest problem would be support. As it is now, when troubleshooting a problem, we have to ask how certain Configuration Options are set. Sometimes Kim has to request a copy of the configuration file. Think of the nightmare in trying to help someone who explains a complex key sequence, only to find out after much effort that one of the keys had be reassigned. Then multiply that scenario many times. Also, you could no longer walk up to someone else's computer and use their ZTree, because the keys would not work the same. It's difficult enough now when everyone sets different configuration options from your favorite ones. Even ordinary discussion on the forum would get more difficult if everyone started to assign their own keys. Then there's the documentation and help file. This would have to be totally redone to be useful. It could no longer describe things by the key assignments, but would instead have to describe everything by function name, independent of the key assignments. All this would raise the difficulty of support to an unnecessarily high level, IMHO. There has been discussion about some limited user assignment, which I would support. For example, we could let the user assign the "Y" set, ("Your" set). So far, none of the "Y" variations are assigned, nor were they in XTree, so they would all be available for this.
