    The keyboard short cuts for creating and navigating
    folders and links are great.  Are there any plans to implement some keyboard short cuts at the line and word levels ?  eg: foreward-word, delete-word... like the ones
    in vi or emacs.  GTK+'s text widget should already have this.

    Also, I have modified code-browser-frame.zc to enable
    the Next and Previous window commands.

      I forgot to document editing commands and their bindings. The editor uses CUA bindings. Here is some common commands for words:
          CTRL-Delete delete-forward-word
          CTRL-Backspace delete-backward-word
          CTRL-Left forward-word
          CTRL-Right backward-word
      I have currently implemented a minimum set of edition commands. I add new ones as users ask for them.

      Next and Previous window commands does not have keyboard shortcuts because there is already shortcuts for almost equivalents commands with CTRL-TAB and CTRL-SHIFT-TAB. The difference is that when the CTRL key is released, the active window is moved to the top of the list of windows. So, pressing CTRL-TAB switches between the two windows at the top of the list. To activate the other windows, you must keep the CTRL key pressed and press TAB several times.

      I have plans for adding custom shortcuts in the config file but I have another important feature that I want to add first: the tree view of folders.

        I am looking forward to this. :)
