Oh, right, I've had all that and more for so long in or out of NW that I had forgotten that was on offer IN NW. Control click (pressing the roller button in the Logitech mouse) gives me a contextual menu containing help, applications, windows, desktop, empty trash, cut, copy, paste, clear, font, size, style, word count, analyze text, program switcher, and switch to application ... Clicking in the finder gives me the same down to trash, then it is new folder, close window, get info, add to favourites, view, clean up, arrange, view options, program switcher, switch to application ... If I click on, say, a folder, it is different again, or a file ... options to open, move, move to trash and so on ... Ihave to admit that NW is not the best follower of its delving into 4 ledvels of sub-menus. What I have is the mighty Turley's FinderPop, 100% solid, costs the extraordinary sum of US$8, which Turley (an Irishman) claims is the price of two pints of Beamish -- enough to make him a beamish boy ... He calls it "pintware". I thought everyone had that!!!! www.finderpop.com Cheers, Geoff
