Adding to this an idea from someone else (forgot whom, sorry!!):

* If the "ALT" key is pressed, apply the movement to the camera ITSELF, 
staying in camera mode. (This will permit real-time aiming of the 
camera).

Working on understanding the code that handles all this. The big 
question right now is where the individual bits (no pun intended) of 
"G" are defined. What do they mean? Most are pretty clear, but some 
(vb?) are not.
