Yes, that is what it is. The lingo is just the short cut key(s) used
to activate it. I am not sure I like having it moved to shift R
because it still has not sunk in that I must use b and c instead of
the old b and bb. Seems like a similar problem to me. Really I want BB
back, but will not likely get it. I know that I am not the only one
that feel that way. I have seen at least 2 tuts that complain about
the BB change. Typing R or RR is very fast and easy to use. Having to
reach to shift for a very common short cut key is a pain. I don't know
about the rest of the users but I have a hard time hitting keys like
shift ( I tend to hit cap lock instead). Still I am thinking that it
is very likely new users will love your changes.  Perhaps this is JUST
IMOHO! I look forward to others reactions.
