Ha! I had _never_ realized that! That's quite useful to know, as I also use 
"Edit as text" quite often :-)

Yes. I imagined that's why some things are not quite X-ish, because that's how 
they are in RISC OS.

That would be very nice.

And while we are in selection-related matters, I have a suggestion: how about 
making "show target" not only show the directory where the target of a link 
is, but also select it? That would be quite useful. Also, it would be nice if 
"New file" would select the new file after creating it. In both cases, it 
would make it easier to locate the corresponding file.
