Mine doesn't do that. Are you sure you didn't just put in a controlKey
or commandKeyDown handler at some point that does that?

Just tried mine and I don't see those results, either.

Command-Control-B brought up an I/O box (it's a long time since I've
used that terminology, but I think that's what it's called) asking
me where my Budget stack is.

Command-Control-F didn't seem to do anything.

It seems I did.

Er, em, mmmmh, this is embarrassing, how do I put this?

The script in my Home stack is headed "--- from Jacqueline Landman Gay"

The 'obvious' shortcut back to the browse tool - "c" for cursor - was used to set/unset the cantmodify of the stack.

If I'm recalling this correctly, didn't command-tab take you in and out of the browse tool? And command-space hid the menubar. Both of those got overridden by OSX using the same presses for other things.

LOL! That's funny. I should have looked. There's a whole bunch of
shortcuts in that handler that I forgot were in there, I guess it's been
too long. At any rate, it works where the alternate shortcut I used to
use doesn't, so I'm glad you rediscovered it for me.

Right, and Cmd-tab is what I used to use all the time. That's why I'd
forgotten I had those custom keypresses in place.
